Grimms Notes (グリムノーツ, Gurimu Nōtsu) is an online free-to-play role-playing game developed by Genki and published by Square Enix. It was released in Japan on January 21, 2016 for Android and iOS devices. The game was released worldwide on March 2, 2018 in South Korea, China, North America and Europe by Flero Games, a Korean publisher.[1][2] An anime television series adaptation by Brain's Base, titled Grimms Notes: The Animation, premiered from January 10 to March 28, 2019; the anime series is licensed in North America by Sentai Filmworks.[3][4]

Gameplay

Grimms Notes is a side-scrolling role-playing game. The player controls a party of characters based on fairy tales and stories such as Little Red Riding Hood and Cinderella. The player directly controls the main character, moving them around the battle screen and attacking enemies, while the game controls the other party members. As characters defeat enemies they charge a skill meter, with the player activating the character's unique skill, both for the main character and others, when fully charged.[5][6]

The game features a "Soul System", wherein each character has two "souls" equipped, equivalent to jobs or character classes. In between battles the player can change which souls are equipped.[5]

Plot

In the game, the player and the fairy tale characters band together to combat "Chaos Tellers", which are rewriting the fairy tale stories and changing fate.[7] Fairy tales include characters from such stories as Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, and Little Red Riding Hood.[8]

Release

The game was released in Japan on January 21, 2016 for Android and iOS devices. It was released worldwide on March 2, 2018 in South Korea, China, North America and Europe by Flero Games, a Korean publisher.[1] On January 10, 2019 the global version was shut down. The Japanese version closed its services on June 17, 2020. Later, a free offline application was released, which made it available to read every cutscene ever released without the gameplay.

Reception

The game was downloaded two million times in four days, and over 15 million times total in Japan.[1][9]
