How to play White Viper on Mac

Game summary

White Viper -- an epic saga of true love and bravery -- in five parts. You are the hero -- a gallant knight from a noble family and betrothed to the beautiful princess. Your family coat of arms features a large white snake, and because of this you are known as -- the White Viper! One day when the princess was out walking you saw her attacked by an evil spirit, sent by a wicked Wizard! In vain you tried to protect her, but the spirit whisked her away, along with your armour. But all is not lost, you find a wild horse which you catch and tame. On it you gallop off to the rescue. But the quest is long -- first you must reach the castle of the Wizard, recovering your armour on the way. If you make it that far you will have to encounter the Wizard in person, but if you can defeat him you will be crowned king and take the hand of the princess.
First released: Feb 1984

Play White Viper on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play White Viper 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).

White Viper installation steps for Mac
