How to play Chunithm Super Star on Mac
Game summary
Play Chunithm Super Star on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Chunithm Super Star 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).

🕹 Editor's notes
Arcade rhythm games are quite popular in Japan, but currently, the craze has started in Western countries too. Now, when it comes to this genre, Chunithm is pretty well known among gamers. Sega developed it in 2015; in 2021, it was upgraded to Chunithm New.
The newer version is more polished and has added multiple features. Outside Japan, this game is called Chunithm Superstar. So, expect similar features in both versions.
This music game can be indulging as well as nerve-wracking as you level up. However, it's exciting, and you get to enjoy different music genres.
What to look forward
With the upgrade, expect multiple changes, including level adjustments, upgraded touch panels, speakers, and earphone jack. Additionally, it features a 120fps monitor and supports digital payment. You can also go into arena and avatar battles.
The gameplay is basic and simple. It has motion censored and touchpad bars to tab the notes shown on the screen. The first step is to choose the song and then choose the difficulty level. It comes with multiple setting options and a selection of speed levels.
If you love D.D.R. (Dance Dance Revolution), you're going to love this one too. While D.D.R. involves whole body movement, Chunithm is more about your hand movement. Well, you have to tap the bars when the note hits the monitor. It gets challenging as you move onto the next level.
However, that’s the exciting part of it. It looks easy but can be pretty nerve-wracking. Perhaps, you can improve your patience with this game! Give it a try if you haven't, and see how far you can go.
