How to play Slam 'n Jam 95 on Mac

Game summary

Slam 'N Jam '95 is a game similar in style to the arcade game Run & Gun and NBA Jam, with a five-on-five team game in a 3-D style perspective. The gameplay is geared towards more of an arcade feel rather than simulation and does not feature any NBA license but resembles actual teams and modeled after top players of the time. It also features the obligatory modes such as Exhibition, Playoffs and Season and the ability to let friends go head-to-head. Then CNN sportscaster Van Earl Wright lends his voice talents to the game for in game commentary.
First released: Feb 1995

Play Slam 'n Jam 95 on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Slam 'n Jam 95 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).
