Tailor Tales Design dresses, fall in love

Sew outfits for your boutique's clients while a romance with one of seven bachelors unfolds the way you choose.

Is Tailor Tales worth it?

Tailor Tales is worth it if…

  • you want an otome where the main character has a spine and you choose how she acts
  • you like romance routes that are nothing alike, from thieves to superheroes to time loops
  • you enjoy a relaxed design mini-game between chapters instead of pure reading
  • you want a long visual novel you can start without paying anything

Design clothes to earn your next chapter

Clients bring requests, you design the garment, and the finished piece pays for the next part of the romance. Finish a route and you unlock more wearable clothes for her.

Seven very different men

Each bachelor gets his own complete story with no common route, so every pick feels like a new game. Neil is prickly and wealthy, and drags you to masquerade balls and the opera. Dimitri, your ex's younger brother, ends up renting a room in your boutique and cooking for you. Caine is a thief who needs a push in the right direction. James crashes in front of your shop, literally, in a world where people have superpowers and you design their costumes. Then there is Aiden the catfish, Gray the old gang rival now squatting in your basement, and Eeyok, your guard in an 18th century life where you were executed once already. An eighth route, Zex, is still in development.

Make her yours, inside and out

You customize your main character's looks, dress her up in clothes you designed yourself, and decorate the boutique she runs. In conversation you decide her attitude: act fierce or kind with your guy, kiss him first or let him take the lead. She is not a shy blank slate either; the main character has a backbone and a career, and her best friend Sarah has her back through every route. Each bachelor's story has two endings, and neither one is bad: the game simply lets you steer toward the ending you prefer.

A long read, told well

Each route runs 5 to 7 hours, roughly 100k to 130k words per character, and the stories go to unexpected places: a time loop before your own execution, a kidnapping in a superhero city, strange sounds from a basement. The cast is hand-drawn and lively: sprites blink, mouths move as they talk, and the CGs are animated. There is partial voice acting, pleasant background music, and a night mode for reading in the dark. When you finish an ending, the game asks if you want to see the other one right away instead of making you replay the whole route.

What should you know before starting?

How long is one route, and can you replay it?

A route takes about 5 to 7 hours, and each bachelor has two endings. After finishing one ending the game offers to show you the other without replaying the whole story. With seven completed routes and an eighth on the way, there is a lot to come back to.

Is the romance the same in every route?

No. Every bachelor has a completely unique story with no common route, set in its own situation: an alternate reality with superpowers, an 18th century court, a rival gang's past, an online game friendship. You pick a guy and jump straight into his story.

Is the writing any good?

It divides readers. Some find the stories gripping and the dramatic moments genuinely affecting, while others find the plots full of familiar tropes. James's route in particular is often singled out for its storytelling, and the game does not shy away from heavier topics alongside the romance.
