Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales is a Nintendo DS adventure RPG by Square Enix. It was released in Japan on December 14, 2006 and North America on April 3, 2007. It has been released in Australia on May 24, 2007 and then a day later in Europe. During the course of Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales, players travel around an island magically transporting into pop-up picture books to complete minigames and open the path to the next part of the story. The picture books take the form of Aesop's Fables and Grimm's Fairy Tales with the player character often taking the main role. Other Final Fantasy characters take up roles within the stories. More simplistic minigames, known as microgames, are also scattered throughout the island.

Unlike minigames, these are not located within pop-up books, do not affect the game-world and do not have to be completed for progress to be made. They do give players opportunities to acquire more cards for their decks. Success in minigames and microgames also earns players collectible cards to form decks. These decks are used to battle game's bosses in card battle games. Multiplayer includes playing the card battles in multi-card and online play by using Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and the mini-games are multi-card and single-card download multiplayer as well. 2-4 players may team up for battles, or to participate in mini-games.
