How to play Under Fire on Mac
Game summary
A once peaceful city has been turned into a complete nightmare by an extremely violent gang who call themselves "Hoppers". The officers of the Special Police are called in to mow down the Hoppers and save the city from certain doom!
There are six rounds of pure mayhem as you mow down enemies in quick succession, as well as having to avoid innocent bystanders.
Unlike many gun arcade games during this time period, Under Fire uses an infrared sensor to track gun movements instead of the timing of a CRT monitor, eliminating the need of screen flashes.
First released: Jun 1994
Play Under Fire on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Under Fire 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).
Under Fire 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 Under Fire like you would on any PC.
