Once Upon a Time: The Storytelling Card Game
Players build a collaborative fairy-tale by narrating scenes that incorporate elements from cards in their hands. One player starts as the Storyteller and weaves a tale using the items, characters, and events shown on their cards while trying to steer the plot toward their own ending card. Other players interrupt by playing matching story-element cards and taking over narration, aiming to run out of cards and finish with their Happy Ever After. Play proceeds until a player has played all cards and resolves their ending.
