Welcome to Tokyo, a city of clamor and crowds. A place where the broth is hot, the winters are cold, and people's lives often take surprising turns. See that oden cart? It's a small mobile food stand that sells hot bowls of hearty broth stocked with a variety of hand-picked ingredients, from daikon radish to tofu. Here Gramps, the taciturn proprietor, serves meals to a rotating cast of customers who sit for a spell at one of the cart's few available seats. In Oden Cart 4: ~Life Goes On~, take on the role of the oden cart owner and serve delicious bowls of oden to your customers! As they dig in, they'll strike up a conversation, share their troubles, and give you a glimpse of the joys and sorrows that delight and plague them. Sell enough food and you'll save up money with which you can stock new varieties of oden. Customers all have their favorite types of oden, and if you serve them enough of them they'll become regular customers. This means they'll hang around longer and eat more oden! You might end up listening to them gripe about the same thing a few times, but patience is a virtue, and virtues are always rewarded in the end. The more you get to know your customers, the more likely they'll be to tell you more about themselves...and maybe even tell you what they really think! Oden 4: ~Life Goes On~ is the 4th installment of the popular Oden Cart series. Not only is there a fun main story for you to experience, we also have a massive additional story episode* available for download!

They barely seem to notice the presence of a single old man, quietly trudging down the street pulling a food cart. For his part, he gives them a cursory glance now and then, but mostly focuses on putting one heavy, plodding foot in front of the other—much like the people who don't seem to pay him much mind. This is an oden cart. A small food stall where people can grab a quick bite. And tonight, like so many other nights, a few souls will step out of the gloom and sit for a spell, seeking a hot meal and a moment's respite. Each of them bears their own joys and sorrows, their dreams and regrets. Tonight, at this cart, a miraculous little tale will reveal itself. And if you so desire, you can be there to witness it for yourself. ---------------------------------- [Additional Episode Details] ---------------------------------- This episode is a story set in an alternate universe from that of the main story. Though some characters may look the same, they are totally different individuals here in this parallel oden dimension. Their stories, however, are just as gripping, just as filled with ups and downs, and hopefully just as much fun to experience! ---------------------------------- English Lead: Gavin Greene English Translation: Jeffrey Wilson Thomas Threlfo
