How to play Screaming Loaf on Mac

Game summary

Screaming Loaf is a wacky puzzle-platform game for Android. The fridge contents have one goal; to become a sandwich. They'll stop at nothing to fulfil their quest of smearing themselves on some bread, but these fillings have chosen the wrong loaf to mess with. Loaf happens to have a scream so powerful that it can shatter jam jars, melt butter, and explode cheese! Each level has you control Loaf with the objective to destroy all enemies. There are 5 on-screen buttons; move left, move right, scream, jump, and drop a slice. Different enemies have different strengths, so some may require multiple screams to eliminate. Screaming is not only good for damaging enemies, Loaf's scream can also push levers and propel himself across water. Loaf is made up of 5 slices, Loaf has the ability to leave slices behind and re-join with them later, any dropped slices will scream at the same time as the control slice. More points are scored for completing levels quickly, so dropping slices in next to where enemies are about to spawn is useful to defeat them more efficiently. Dropping slices plays a big part in puzzle solving too. Slices also act as health, a slice is lost from Loaf upon enemy collision. Beware though, each slice you drop gives Loaf one less slice of protection. You will fail the level when you lose your control slice. Will you manage to save Loaf from becoming a sandwich?

Play Screaming Loaf on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Screaming Loaf 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).
