How to play Slap Shot: Super Pro Hockey on Mac

Game summary

Super Pro Hockey is a one or two-player hockey game. There are four handicap/skill levels to choose from after selecting whether or not the player wants a one or two-player game: Amateur, Rookie, Pro, Super Pro. Essentially, changing the handicap results in changing speeds to the gameplay, from low (Amateur) to high (Super Pro). There are no teams, only Home and Visitor. Each team has three players and a goalie. The home team is tan and the visitor team is green. The player can only control one character at at time, and this character is colored lighter than the rest of the player's team. Goalies are controlled by the computer. In late 2018, discovering that they had over 200 loose cartridges of Slap Shot: Super Pro Hockey, the Blue Sky Rangers had new boxes and overlays printed and released the remaining stock as fully boxed copies.
First released: Oct 1987

Play Slap Shot: Super Pro Hockey on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Slap Shot: Super Pro Hockey 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).
