How to play Sheepland on Mac

Game summary

Sheepland: a sunny land of rolling green meadows, lush forests, and majestic mountains. The peaceful, happy people of the island want nothing more than to roam the land with their fuzzy little flocks of fluffy white sheep. All is well and good, until somebody has the bright idea to put up some fences... Now the shepherds must compete for the most profitable lands to raise their flocks, driving the sheep to the lands they own and fencing them in so they don’t wander off and join some other shepherd’s flock! And then there’s that strange black sheep that keeps showing up. Its rare black wool is certain to fetch a pretty price in the market for the shepherd that can pen him in! Can you corral the finest herd in the best lands and become the richest shepherd in Sheepland?

Play Sheepland on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Sheepland 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).

Sheepland installation steps for Mac

Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.
Step 2
Follow the installation process and make sure you allow Parallels in your Mac’s security preferences (it will prompt you to do so).
Step 3
When prompted, download and install Windows 10. The download is around 5.7GB. Make sure you give it all the permissions that it asks for.
Step 4
Once Windows is done installing, you are ready to go. All that’s left to do is install Sheepland like you would on any PC.
