How to play Nocturne: Rebirth on Mac
Game summary
Nocturne: Rebirth is a popular 10 to 20-hour (story-wise) JRPG originally created using RPG Maker XP in 2009 by Shou (or Cogwheel). It is actually the remake of the game Nocturne created using RPG Maker 2000 way back in 2002. The differences between the two include new graphics and a new battle system, with only the story virtually unchanged. It was fan translated by eplipswich.
Play Nocturne: Rebirth on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Nocturne: Rebirth 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).
