How to play Tumble VR on Mac

Game summary

Tumble VR takes the the original, much loved, PlayStation 3 game and rebuilds it from the ground up for PlayStation VR - complete with a brand new visual style, a load of new levels and some great new modes. Tumble VR is best described as an accessible, fun, engaging and immersive puzzle game. When you pull the PlayStation VR headset on we place you in an arena that will test both your physical dexterity and mental skills. Working your way through a gauntlet of tests - from simply building a tower, to creating bridges, working out fiendish puzzles and blowing up enormous towers of blocks - Tumble VR will push your skills and brainpower to the limit. Alongside the new levels and visuals for Tumble VR, we have also added a new competitive mode. This uses the PlayStation VR Social Screen feature that allows a second player to play on the same TV together with the VR player to create a social VR experience.

Play Tumble VR on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Tumble VR 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).

Tumble VR 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 Tumble VR like you would on any PC.
