Great Game for Family Night - Tell Tale Fairy Tales

Blue Orange Games Reinvents Story Time with Tell Tale Fairy Tales

The 411 by Maria & Goddess (7)

We received Tell Tale Fairy Tales 2 weeks ago and have not missed playing it yet. Goddess loves this game so much and spends most of the time laughing so hard that she ends up having to sprint to the bathroom.  She has a great sense of humor my daughter.

I digress, back to the game. With Tale Fairy Tales, you can make up the way you want to play or choose from the games described on the instructions like “ Round ‘N Round” where players cooperate to develop a communal tale and in “Storyboard” where you invent your story individually. Goddess and I prefer the collaboration. We divvy the cards up into two sets and make up the story as we go along. We take turns going first. Depending on the card, building the story around it. It may be a picture of a prince climbing a wall,  so we will start with; One day a handsome prince saw a tall tower in the middle of nowhere, after careful observation over a few days and seeing no one, he decided to climb up.  The next card may be a dragon with a heart above her head so the next person puts it down and may say something like, at the top of the tower he found a dragon who feel immediately in love with him and it goes from there. You never know how the story will come out because the cards and the player holding it will always be different. Our stories have been funny, sad, lovable, action packed, and sinister depending on the way the cards came up and how we were feeling at the time.

It is so much fun and I can't wait for our next play date to see how it will be with other players involved since it has only been the two of us so far.

This is not the Tell Tale Fairy Tales game but the original which is just Tell Tales but you get the idea.
