How to play Star Trek Voyager: The Arcade Game on Mac
Game summary
After a hearty "Welcome aboard!" from Captain Janeway, you start your adventure on Voyager, which is quickly overrun with Borg. After 6 shots, your phaser must be "recalibrated" by firing off-screen. The game includes occasional opportunities for weapons upgrades, life upgrades and bomb detonation. The game expands to various areas of Voyager and to the Borg ship, and introduces additional aliens along the way. The game also includes a space scenario which simulates a shuttle flight where you fire at various Borg ships.

Play Star Trek Voyager: The Arcade Game on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Star Trek Voyager: The Arcade Game 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).
