How it feels

A challenging yet adorable precision platformer with a heartfelt story about friendship and romance set in a fantastical Japanese myth-inspired world.

What players say

Players compare Kitsune Tails to a lesbian Mario 3, but opinions split on the level design. Some find it fair and rewarding, others call it frustrating with unfair hazards. The game has two acts, and the second act introduces a forced replay of earlier levels with a different character, which some players criticize. The queer representation and art style are consistently praised.
