Game summary

Inland ship captains prefer the confined river and its banks to the vastness of the open ocean. But make no mistake, by no means is the river an easy ride and concentration is key when hauling cargo on a busy river to its destination. Lack of focus or experience can prove disastrous for your precious vessel, its cargo and your reputation. This new Inland Vessels campaign will guide you through some of the challenges an inland vessel captain faces.

Play Ship Simulator Extremes: Inland Shipping on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Ship Simulator Extremes: Inland Shipping 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).
