How to play Yoyo on Mac
Game summary
Yoyo is an arcade adventure in which you play as Yoyo. Because of a hacker you are trapped inside your computer game. You have to collect valves and hopefully make it out.
Aliens and spikes will kill you, but you can avoid death by using your barrier which will kill aliens and remove spikes. Once an alien is dead it stays dead even after you die. Spikes will fully return though.
First released: Dec 1988
Play Yoyo on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Yoyo 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).
Yoyo 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 Yoyo like you would on any PC.
