Game summary
Simon is back and this time in 3 dimensions!
The adventure begins with Simon's soul being reunited with his body on the roof of an Aztec Temple. Slightly confused and disoriented, Simon escapes the temple with the help of his new fairy godmother.
Once again explore with Simon a vast fantastical world and help him find a way back home by uncovering the secrets of 'The Nexus'. Do this before your arch nemesis, Sordid, can use its power for more evil means.
Meet up with favorite characters once more such as The Swampling, Calypso and the Woodworm! Enjoy over 40 hours of gameplay filled with ribald jokes, sly humour and 'off the cuff' quips.
This is full "talkie" version of the game. You can turn the subtitles on if you prefer subtitled version.

Play Simon the Sorcerer 3D on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Simon the Sorcerer 3D 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).
Simon the Sorcerer 3D installation steps for Mac
Step 1

Step 3
