Rod Land, known in Japan as Yousei Monogatari Rod Land (妖精物語ロッドランド, lit. "Rod Land: A Fairy Tale") is a 1990 arcade game originally developed and published by Jaleco.
The player(s) control one or two fairies called Tam and Rit armed with a magic wand (rod). Following the concept of Taito's Bubble Bobble, the rod doesn't kill the monsters directly, but only leaves them immobilized, crying. To kill them, the rod can grasp them in a magic force-field and the player can smash them down over her head until they disappear and leave a power-up behind.
