O-Chan no Oekaki Logic[c] is a Japan-exclusive puzzle game based on the popular nonogram game. The game is considered to be a spin-off of Sunsoft's Hebereke series. Its first release was on the PlayStation on September 8, 1995, and would later be ported onto other platforms ever since.[1] The game has received 2 sequels.[2] It is the only game in the Hebereke series to feature Utsuzin as the main villain, rather than Unyohn. A European version, named Oh-Chan's Logic, was planned, but was cancelled.[3]

Plot[d] edit

The ending shows O-Chan waking from her bed, indicating (but not explaining) that it was a dream.

Sequels edit
O-Chan no Oekaki Logic 2 edit
On September 27, 1996,[e] O-Chan no Oekaki Logic 2[f] was released on the PlayStation. It was also ported to the WonderSwan on January 6, 2000, though the "2" was dropped from the title, as it was the only game in the series released for that platform. The game featured new puzzles, music tracks, and updated visuals. The game also added a painting mode, in which the puzzle grid must be filled with color.
O-Chan no Oekaki Logic 3 edit
The final entry in the series, known as O-Chan no Oekaki Logic 3[g], was released on January 11, 2001 exclusively on the PlayStation. The game uses the same engine as the first game, featuring more levels; the game lacked the additions the second game had.
O-Chan no Oekaki desu wa edit
O-Chan no Oekaki desu wa[h] was released in 2004 for mobile devices.[4] It was the final game in the Hebereke series for over 20 years. Little information is known about this release. As its name suggests, it is a remake of the first game.
