We tell you who should skip it, too.

Good fit- Visual novel readers who want a story set among Japanese fairy tales rather than a combat-focused game.
- Players interested in a mystery involving a protagonist with amnesia and a companion from her past.
- Fans of illustrated storybook settings who want characters from several traditional tales.
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players looking for a deep combat system may find the described brush fighting is only an occasional part of the story.
- Those seeking an open-ended or highly replayable structure may find the tale-by-tale visual novel premise comparatively focused.
- Players looking for a runner, shooter, or survival-crafting game will find a different kind of play here.
Our take on Adabana Odd Tales
The visual novel format keeps attention on the tale and its characters, while leaving combat as a limited part of the experience. That focus may not suit players who want fighting or other action systems to carry most of the gameplay.
What is Adabana Odd Tales?
Adabana Odd Tales is a visual novel about Shirohime, a girl who has lost her memories, and Kurofude, a boy she does not recognize.
They travel through illustrated versions of classic Japanese fairy tales, searching for distortions that prevent the stories from progressing. Shirohime catches bookworms that eat words from the books and turns them into ink; Kurofude uses a brush to return the ink to the pages and restore the text. He can also wield the brush as a weapon against enemies. The story begins when the pair open a damaged book of Hanasaka Jiisan and enter its fairy-tale realm. Other tales represented in the game include Urashima Taro, Urikohime to Amanojaku, and Momotaro.
