How to play Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic the Hedgehog on Mac
Game summary
Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic the Hedgehog brings the Ultimate Lifeform to South Island to put a stop to Dr. Robotnik's Evil Plans!
He must skate across 7 perilous zones to free the animals he's trapped in his robots and collect the 6 Chaos Emeralds!
Shadow's journey however isn't the same as that blue rodent, as he has the ability to use rings to fuel his rocket shoes for a boost! However the shoes use 5 Rings per boost so use them wisely!
Shadow also brings the Light Speed Dash to the table working just like how it did back when he was the talk of the town!
Simply hit A near a trail of rings to dash through them at light speed!
Oh and did I mention that thanks to Shadow practicing his Chaos Abilities so much, he no longer needs the 7th emerald to go Super?

Play Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic the Hedgehog on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic the Hedgehog 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).
