这是一款高中恋爱题材的GALGAME。在六年前的初夏,我的第一次人生结束了。被收养,接纳,拥有了新的名字。那份因记忆的空白而生出的不安,终于在回归普通的生活中一点点淡化。平淡岁月里,逐渐忘却的记忆,与那年的蝉鸣一起,被封存在了黑暗深处。

Play Cicadas on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Cicadas 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).

Cicadas 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 Cicadas like you would on any PC.
