Game summary

Something strange is happening in the school at night. Will you dare to take part in the secret word-challenge? The rules are simple. You have only 1 minute to spell out all words appearing on black board. Use all your attention and fast fingers to shoot letters in correct order to win in this mind battle. Use keyboard/mouse to type the words correctly. Currently, the "survival" mode is implemented so far, where each next level requires more words to complete for the same amount of time. How far will you go?

Play Word Shot on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Word Shot 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).

Word Shot 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 Word Shot like you would on any PC.
