How to play Six Rules on Mac

Game summary

Hung on a piece on thread in the foyer, a bamboo scroll read: Rules 1) You must not let any strangers into the house. Preferably not even the forest where we reside in. 2) If you spot any strangers loitering around the property, alert us immediately. 3) You may converse with strangers as a gesture of friendliness, but never tell them where the house is located. We are hiding for safety, after all. 4) Don’t accept things from trespassers. Don’t give things to trespassers, either. 5) Never, I repeat, never talk to those of the Taira family. 6) Got it? Don’t trust the Taira Clan. Minamoto no Ryouji, a 12th-century Japanese boy of the Minamoto clan read those rules, and knew them all by heart. Never in his life would he even dream of breaking even one of them. That is, until that one day he met a girl named Yuki in the heart of the winter fields. Six Rules is a short story about a little boy, a little girl, and a spiritual journey through a snow-strewn forest of ancient Japan.

Play Six Rules on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Six Rules 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).

Six Rules installation steps for Mac

Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.
Step 2

Step 4
