How to play The Legend of Zelda: Second Wind on Mac
Game summary
Play The Legend of Zelda: Second Wind on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play The Legend of Zelda: Second Wind 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).

🕹 Editor's notes
The Legend Of Zelda is one of the prominent games developed by Nintendo. This game was created in 1986, leading to a fantasy-based adventure series. The game revolves around a Link, an elf-like, and is set in the fantasy land called Hyrule.
In the pursuit of rescuing princess Zelda from the villain Ganon, he has to complete various task missions. The Legend of Zelda Second Wind is a community project with inputs from fans. It’s a large-scale expansion of Breath of the Wild, which is a favorite among fans.
This game is a mix of role-playing, action, and adventure. Even after decades, the game is still popular with massive fan followings. And it's not surprising that this led to the development of a fan mod game which is more like a tribute.
Impressive attempt; sadly, no official release
Second wind is a project involving ideas from fans. It's not officially released, but the mod is available on Wii U and Switch on the Breath of the Wild version. Initially, expectations were low for this version, but the game is quite impressive, giving a run for the money of the original version.
The game is divided into two parts: the Ancient Trials and the Ancient Island. Additionally, it's updated with multiple features and content. It has a new quest, weapons, areas, enemies, and N.P.C.s. Additionally, it has wildlife expansion, martial art combat system, and a reintroduction of masks and gossip stones.
Frankly, the game is quite impressive, and it's a pity that it isn't up for official releases. But kudos to the team for this extraordinary project.
