How to play Spooks on Mac
Game summary
Spooks is an action-adventure game where the goal is to collect eight musical boxes and play them at the exit. The game is set in and around a large mansion which is haunted by four ghosts against which you can defend by throwing large or heavy objects at. Around the mansion there are many rooms and many items whose function you need to figure out in order to complete the game. Adding to the suspense is the need to be on alert for the ghosts as they move quite fast and also that when in inventory menu you only get a short time to make your decisions.
First released: Dec 1985
Play Spooks on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Spooks 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).
Spooks 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 Spooks like you would on any PC.
