How to play The SIlver Key on Mac

Game summary

What would had happened if Lovecraft met Tim Burton and together made a game based in one of his stories ? Maybe they would do The Silver Key Game. Your spells have succeeded and you´ve just got through the first door to an unknown dimension, very different from the one you are used to. Your eyes have never seen scenarios such as the ones you are going to discover and your mind will have to be adaptive in order to immerse yourself in a Tim Burton style side-scrolling game. As time goes by, you will see fragments of the story co-written by Lovecraft and Hoffmann "Through the gates of the silver key" * blended with a variety puzzles, enemies and traps.

Play The SIlver Key on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play The SIlver Key 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).
