ONCE UPON A TIME
By Atlas Games
Nice little story-telling game. You are dealt cards, each of which has an object, a person, a place, an event or an aspect upon it. These can be played only when you, or another player, mentions them in a story. The story ends when you get rid of all your cards and use your pre-determined 'Happy Ever After' ending phrase.
You can also interrupt to take-over the telling of the story.
Simple, fun, easy to play. At points though I found myself telling tales that did not involve any of the cards in my hand.
In one evening we played about four games. I don't remember winning any, but I do remember taking part.
