How to play Project Giant Robot on Mac
Game summary
Project Giant Robot was a game planned for the Wii U that featured a giant robot that the player could customize and that would be controlled with the Wii U game-pad.
The idea was to fight other robots and try to knock opponents over like in a sumo match. The Wii U's gyroscope sensor would be used to keep your robot standing during the fight.
The game had been in development for years and was shown at E3 2014 but development was canceled on February 1st, 2017.
First released: Dec 2016
Play Project Giant Robot on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Project Giant Robot 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).
Project Giant Robot installation steps for Mac
