Game summary
Spider-Man is an action-adventure game released in 2002 on the Xbox, Playstation 2, GameCube, Game Boy Advance and Microsoft Windows. Developped by Treyarch and published by Activision, the game has you playing as Spider-Man in the events of the movie while also adding new ennemies like the Shocker and Vulture. The gameplay consists of successive levels where you need to defeat thugs with your fists and web and save someone/something from multiple sources of danger until you reach the boss of the section. You either fight in enclosed environments or swing around New-York City in "aerial" sequences.

Play Spider-Man on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Spider-Man 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).
Spider-Man 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 Spider-Man like you would on any PC.
