Story War is a story telling party game for three to eight players created by Brad O'Farrell and Tom McLean. The object of the game is to defeat the opposing team by telling a story using the cards. There are three types of cards: Warriors, Items and Battlefield. Each turn represents one battle between two teams of players. The setting is defined by a randomly drawn Battlefield card. Players then look at the Warrior cards and Item cards in their hands and try to come up with a clever strategy. Once every player has played their Warrior cards face-down, everyone flips their cards over simultaneously. Then players must quickly describe, in an open discussion, how their team would defeat the opposing team. Each battle is moderated by a judge that rotates every turn so the shared pop cultural context of everyone in the room is very important!Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The game started raising funds on Kickstarter; the goal being a modest $20,000 but quickly reached that goal halfway through the fundraising and eventually raised over $360,000.The game itself can be found here. There is an animation short based on the game available on Youtube.

Anachronism Stew: The first volume is medieval fantasy-themed, but it can be freely combined with the modern setting from the second volume or the deluxe edition, which contains a few futuristic elements.
