I installed Parallels on my iMac, among other things, to run a couple of Windows games on my iMac (Starcraft I --the original--and Age of Empires III).

I noticed when I run these games in Parallels, they only take up about a 5 inch x 5 inch box on the middle of my iMac screen--kinda annoying. I find myself squinting to play the original Starcraft.

Is there a way to get these games to use more screen real estate?

Thanks
 
I figured out how to make the game real estate a little bigger on my iMac--I enlarged the screen resolution in Age of Empires. But unfortunately, I can't find that option in the Starcraft (original) game so the game plays in a small area on my 20 inch iMac screen.
 
Try selecting "Adjust Mac resolution in full screen" in Virtual Machine -> Configure -> Options -> Full Screen.

Can somebody provide more information on where can I find those settings? I cannot find Virtual Machine tab or option anywhere :)

The Configure option is in the Actions menu, or the gear button of the virtual machine's window, or right click the virtual machine in the Control Center.
The Full Screen options are a little different than they were 13 years ago.
