How to play Videocart-10: Maze, Cat and Mouse on Mac
Game summary
Poor little mice, doomed to run around in a maze and escape as quickly as they can. As if that's not enough, the owners of this maze pit you against a friend to see who will escape first. And then the diabolical owners take it one step further and add a cat to the maze mix - forcing you not only to escape first, but escape alive!
In this Videocart
Maze: A straight maze run.
Jailbreak: The maze is a grid with hidden passages.
Blind-man's-bluff: The maze is invisible and no walls can ever be seen.
Trailblazer: The maze is invisible but the rats leave a trail on their path.
There are also a few game modes:
Regular Maze: Two players race each other out of the maze.
Cat and Mouse: The computer controls a cat that chases the mice. There are 4 different speeds for the cat.
Paranoia: Neither mouse can leave the maze until the other one is caught by the cat.
Double Paranoia: There's no cat and neither mouse can leave the maze, allowing the players to practice or experiment play modes.
First released: Jul 1977
Play Videocart-10: Maze, Cat and Mouse on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Videocart-10: Maze, Cat and Mouse 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).
