Once Upon a Time. . .
In a small town, after their stories were all told, there lived all the Fairy
Tale characters from every book. Cinderella lived with her step sisters,
then her prince. The 3 Little Pigs built their homes along the same road
that the 3 Billy Goats crossed the Troll’s bridge. Little Red Riding Hood
traveled through the woods in the town to visit her Grandma every week
and in those same woods, Hansel and Gretel got lost away from home. In
the little town live Rumpelstiltskin and even Aladdin and his magic lamp.
Things were going along, happily ever after, until one day, the Big Bad
Wolf was up to no good. He captured those Fairy Tale characters and
made them all stay in the big castle at the edge of town so he could eat
them all for his dinner. Will you help rescue the Fairy Tales from the Big
Bad Wolf?

Game Directions


The goal of the game is to start at the beginning of town and
make your way through the forest, past the pigs’ houses, over the
bridge and to the castle at the edge of town to save the Fairy
Tales.

To play the game you have to roll the dice to see how many
places you can move, then answer a question. If you get the
question correct, you get to move the spaces, but if you do not get
it right, you have to stay where you are. But be careful, along the
path there are adventure cards and if you land on one, you must
do exactly as it says.

To win the game you have to get to the castle to save the
Fairy Tales before any of the other players.
