We love Once Upon a Time.

Curt – I agree that it is storytelling adjacent. I think there is a genre of party game that requires the players to be creative on the spot. Codenames requires player to create clues but Apples-to-Apples does not because you have a hand of cards. In that sense, if you don’t like being forced to create content on the spot, this won’t be the game for you. Clue-giving and storytelling are both in this user-generated content zone.

Thanks! Interestingly, we never describe this as a storytelling game, but rather as a clue giving game. Obviously you are telling a story, but unlike storytelling games, you are not judged on creativity or humor or being the best storyteller. You are rewarded for being a great clue giver. Being able to guide players to what number you rolled, which is a different skill – and one that seems to be less intimidating for people, based on our plays. Anyway, thanks again for sharing your insights! – Curt
