7/10, Not the most amazing VN out there but definitely worth the price, it has a sweet but short story that starts slow but has a satisfying end

A beautiful storybook adventure! It's a fun dive through Japanese children's stories, but with the main characters' plights adding new wrinkles along the way. Considering how many times this VN made me cry, it's well worth the experience.

An interesting premise, gorgeous and stylistic artwork, and a somewhat cliched but effective ending come together to make a good enough visual novel in Adabana Odd Tales. The story follows the duo of Shirohime and Kurofude as they travel between the worlds of different Japanese folktales, fill in the missing words in their well-worn pages, and interact with the "guide" of each story, the one character who can see and interact with them. I enjoyed seeing how these stories were depicted in the blurry and colorful art style present in Adabana Odd Tales, but admittedly they didn't resonate as much with me given that I heard primarily westernā€”not Japaneseā€”folktales during my youth. Since I targeted the normal ending during my first readthrough, the story offered few hints towards its truth as Shirohime and Kurofude jumped from story to story, so as the ending was revealed, it felt a bit sudden. (Also, the ending is a bit unoriginal in all of its formsā€”normal, bad, and trueā€”but regardless, I still found it quite effective at pulling on my heartstrings.) The added context that comes from selecting the correct choices to reach the true ending made that ending hit a bit harder and feel a bit more natural as the story transitioned from focusing on the folktales to focusing on Shirohime and Kurofude. And, I found the scene in which the four characters from each folktale they visited (who are actually Shirohime's grandfather, tutor, sister, and deceased fiancĆ©, respectively) guided Shirohime out of her dream and into reality to be surprisingly emotionally impactful. Still, with a first half that is a tad dull, anā€”while impactfulā€”ultimately derivative ending, and beautiful artwork that is in some ways better than the story itself, I can't say that Adabana Odd Tales is anything more than merely good. 7/10

I accidentally discovered this a while ago and the art combined with the unique plot description intrigued me (especially since I had a massive obsession with dark fairytales as a kid lol). Now I finally had a chance to play it and I'm really impressed! The story with all 3 endings turned out shorter than I thought/ hoped for but despite that I didn't find it rushed or anything so I don't mind that. I'm absolutely in love with the artstyle and the CGs, it's so pretty and I haven't played any game with a similar artstyle before. The music is lovely too and provides great atmosphere! I found the story mesmerizing, it's very strange/ confusing in the beginning but information slowly gets revealed until the pieces come together and the truth gets fully revealed. I really liked this whole concept and would gladly play something similar.

this visual novel is beautiful in every way. incredible art, incredible storytelling; i have cried so many tears over my hours playing this and they were all worth it for how beautiful the true ending was (and how much harder the story hit after getting the normal ending first). it's a little slow at first but if you stick with it for half an hour i promise it'll suck you in completely; if you love fairy tales and have tissues to spare i cannot recommend it enough.
