Once Upon a Time

With Once Upon a Time, players are gathering together to tell a fairy tale. Each player holds a unique ending to this story and cards that allow them to guide the story in one way or another. Be careful though, because as you tell your part of the story, other players might hijack the story, allowing them to finish it before you do. The first player to play all the cards in their hand and end the story with their unique ending wins the game.

Objective

Be the first player to play all their cards and finish the story with their unique ending.
