How to play The Legend of Zelda: Fourth Quest on Mac
Game summary
The Legend of Zelda: Fourth Quest is a ROM hack/mod of BS Zelda no Densetsu Map 2 and, consequently, a sequel of another mod called The Legend of Zelda: Third Quest. It was developed by Con, with additional code by other ROM hackers of the BS Zelda scene. The mod intends to make BS Zelda no Densetsu Map 2 closer to a traditional Zelda experience, with the ability to play as Link or Zelda and changes to the engine of the original game which was heavily based on a time-limited gameplay, making it directly related to story progression.

Play The Legend of Zelda: Fourth Quest on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play The Legend of Zelda: Fourth Quest 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).
