How to play The Fisherman and the Sea on Mac

Game summary

The world of No-Lens has drowned and with it went the land, people, and stories that came before. Now many ages have passed and those that survived have done so clustered together on disparate islands. Venturing from an island is a thing of taboo, only for pirates and the foolhardy. The Fisherman, however, has grown up on the sea and is the captain of his own dinky rustboat that he uses for fishing and the occasional ferry service for the brave islander. Take control of the Fisherman as they set out to explore this dreary drowned world and restore the joy of adventure across the seas…

Play The Fisherman and the Sea on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play The Fisherman and the Sea 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).

The Fisherman and the Sea installation steps for Mac

Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.

Step 4
