How to play Topper on Mac

Game summary

Poor Topper, the lovable little turtle who tries to liven up his universe by painting his galactic tiles. But, the mysterious Dynomite and the Renegade Rabbits will stop him if they can. It’s up to you. Can you help Topper, while keeping him from getting caught by the Regenade Rabbits? Can you save him from the mysterious Dynomite before his tile is demolished? Topper needs you! Now it is up to you. You must help Topper get from tile to tile to paint his home; but watch out — the tiles don’t want to be painted and fly off when they can. Don’t wony, though — a tile cannot fly off with Topper on it, so you are safe. But not safe from the mysterious Dynomite or the Rabbits. As you advance from group to group, the difficulty will change, and Topper will have a really tough time trying to finish. So keep your hand steady and your wits about you.
First released: Feb 1983

Play Topper on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Topper 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).

Topper installation steps for Mac

Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.
Step 2
Follow the installation process and make sure you allow Parallels in your Mac’s security preferences (it will prompt you to do so).
Step 3
When prompted, download and install Windows 10. The download is around 5.7GB. Make sure you give it all the permissions that it asks for.
Step 4
Once Windows is done installing, you are ready to go. All that’s left to do is install Topper like you would on any PC.
