How to play Speedy Gonzales: Aztec Adventure on Mac

Game summary

Sylvester has kidnapped all of the mice in Mexico and it's up to Speedy Gonzales to rescue them. To get all the mice back, Speedy must collect the cheese in 18 different stages. However, the cheese will not be easy to collect, as along the way Speedy will have to make death-defying jumps while avoiding spikes, lava, and bottomless pits. In addition to those hazards, there are a number of enemies that are glad the mice are gone and don't want Speedy to rescue them. As luck would have it, there are power-ups and weapons scattered throughout the stages. After completing several stages, Speedy will have to face and defeat a boss character. Will Speedy be able to collect all of the cheese and defeat his enemies? Find out by playing SPEEDY GONZALES: Aztec Adventure.

Play Speedy Gonzales: Aztec Adventure on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Speedy Gonzales: Aztec Adventure 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).
