How to play Casino Kid on Mac
Game summary
Casino Kid is a video game on the NES platform released in 1989. It was published and developed by Sofel. In Japan, it was released as 100 Man Dollar Kid: Maboroshi no Teiou Hen. The game takes place in the fictional town of Lost Wages (a pun on the real city of Las Vegas, Nevada) where the object is to earn lots of money and to defeat the evil King of the Casino. Games at the casino include blackjack and five-card draw poker. In the Japanese version, it was possible to travel to other casinos like New York City and Japan for a substantial airfare cost.

Play Casino Kid on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Casino Kid 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).
Casino Kid installation steps for Mac
