Play Summer Memories on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Summer Memories 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).

Summer Memories 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 Summer Memories like you would on any PC.

🕹 Editor's notes

Summer Memories is another relaxing and casual adventure from Jagex Co-developers. The game revolves around a young boy Sosuke who has been eagerly waiting for summer break to go on an adventure. Set in the late Showa era in Japan, this narrative game is easy to follow. 

Unlike other adventure games, this is more like therapy which sounds odd. But you will know once you get to play. 

Calm and relaxing adventure game

This game is about exploring a new place or location. Every day the players get to choose an item for the adventure. You have the liberty to select the area that you want to explore. The good aspect of this game is that there is no time limit or restricting energy. Additionally, you don’t have to score high points, which is excellent! 

In most adventure games, you need to maintain energy levels or perform a task to get coins or score more. But this game has a different take allowing you to immerse in the virtual scenic places.

Players can enjoy the beauty of this game without worrying about scores or energy. Decent graphic and transition with a relaxing soundtrack. This game is all about experience and exploring new places each day. And who knows, you might find a treasure or make new friends!

The gameplay is simple; you all need to pick items for the adventure and head out on the quest to attain peace. Whether young or old, Summer Memories is for everyone. Give it a shot and be ready to immerse in Sosuke’s world; that will surely give you a nostalgic feeling. 

Also, it is a rare feat that a virtual game can leave one's mind at ease and peaceful. Like the name of the game itself, it does take you to a memory lane.
