How to play Spell Rift on Mac
Game summary
Spell Rift is a word-finding adventure. Navigate your way through the Rift, collecting words in your search for the fabled Well of Words. Along your journey you will encounter enchanting islands and intriguing gadgetry – bombs, locks, viruses, warpers, spinners, and more. Find words by dragging your finger over adjacent tiles. Let go to submit. After submission, the letters vanish and new tiles fall from above. Longer words earn more points as well as bonus tiles. Keep an eye on each level's objective. You may need to find a certain number of words, a specific number of tiles, or perhaps just stay alive!

Play Spell Rift on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Spell Rift 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).
Spell Rift installation steps for Mac
Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.
Step 2
Follow the installation process and make sure you allow Parallels in your Mac’s security preferences (it will prompt you to do so).
Step 3
When prompted, download and install Windows 10. The download is around 5.7GB. Make sure you give it all the permissions that it asks for.
Step 4
Once Windows is done installing, you are ready to go. All that’s left to do is install Spell Rift like you would on any PC.
