How to play Syd of Valis on Mac
Game summary
Yuko Ahso looks like an ordinary grammar school student, but she is actually the Valis Warrior.
"I defeated King Rogles of the Dark World with the Valis sword which was given to me by Queen Valia, but my friend Reiko died in the process" Yuko went home by train after that terrible fight. She didn’t have the slightest idea that she would be summoned to fight again.
"Yuko..." said a familiar voice. “Reiko," said Yuko, "is that you? But I thought you..." Reiko quickly admonished, “Go and see Queen Valia, Yuko. Emperor Megas has threatened Dream World and our friend Vecanti.
When Yuko was told of Vecanti’s great danger, a burning desire moved Yuko to action. She has risen to crush Megas’ ambition!

Play Syd of Valis on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Syd of Valis 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).
