Fabula is the next Libellud release |
When we presented our next release at the Cannes Festival in March, the name on the box was "Grimm". An obvious choice for a game set in the world of Grimm's fairytales, you might think...
However, a number of reasons prompted us to examine alternative names, and Libellud's new game has now been renamed "Fabula" – the Latin word for fairytale.
Jean-Louis-Roubira (who created Dixit) and Régis Bonnessée (who designed Himalaya) are the men behind this rather unorthodox game positioned somewhere between "Once Upon a Time" and a role-playing game. The artwork is signed Mélanie Fuentès, whose incredible talent and flair for scene-setting unlock the game's true depth and potential.
But what is the game actually about?
In Fabula, one player assumes the role of Wilhelm Grimm, who is dreaming up a new fairy-tale. The other players each take on the role of one of the imaginary characters in the famous storyteller's mind.
Will they be able to help him complete his story? Who will be the hero of the new tale? Find answers to these and other questions in this immersive game, which gives free rein to the players' imaginations and flair for improvisation.
