How to play Pride of Nations: The Scramble for Africa on Mac
| Platforms | Computer |
Game summary
The Scramble for Africa is the longest scenario for Pride of Nations yet. Taking place for 40 years starting in 1880, the rapid colonization of Africa by European powers is underway.
With most major powers operating with a strong industrial base, it’s time to set your sights abroad. The Berlin Conference of 1878 has set the guidelines for colonization and the Dark Continent is up for grabs. Colonial expansion isn’t the only worry though. Rampant Imperialism is triggering a global tension and The Great War looms on the horizon. Will you avoid world conflict or will you lead your nation to victory when the Guns of August begin to fire?

Play Pride of Nations: The Scramble for Africa on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Pride of Nations: The Scramble for Africa on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
