TANABATA
Categories: Asian Languages, Flash, Free, Games, Online, Room Escape, Walkthrough

TA-NA-BA-TA is a new Japanese Room Escape game written in Japanese with a bit of English, enough to get things done. TANABATA is also a Japanese star festival that usually held on July 7.
Found in a book on a shelf, the story of TANABATA: “Princess ORIHIME is a daughter of the King in the sky. She fell in love with cattleman’s young person KENGYU. Her father did not permit her marriage, and banished KENGYU to the other side shore in the Milky Way. But he permitted his daughter to meet KENGYU on July 7 every year…”
Nicely done, TANABATA is a fun but short Room Escape game, recommended for a 15-20 minute break.
