Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })You've read the stories of the Arabian Nights. In this somewhat unusual American-style Adventure Board Game, you get the chance to experience them yourself. Essentially, this is a storytelling game—your character spends time Walking the Earth in a world where magic and mystery (and Islam) reigns. The game practically runs on Random Encounters, and the way you choose to react to them, as well as your skills and abilities, will impact your destiny. The gameplay takes place on the board, but the story unfolds in the Book of Tales, a Choose Your Own Adventure style set of 2000 paragraphs.This game, released in 1989, got a Second Edition in 2008. You can find more about it here. |

Beauty Equals Goodness: Having the "Appearance", "Beguiling," or "Seduction" skills allow your character to use this trope to his or her benefit. |

Artistic License – History: Since it's based on mythical tales, of course it's going to be this. The developer also mentions that he took some liberties with how women are portrayed in the game, since in "Arabian Nights" Days many heroines had "the distressing habit of dying to prove their essential goodness." Fortunately, the original stories have more than enough strong heroines to accommodate this trope — you can choose to play as Zumurrud or Scheherazade. |

Ambadassador: Your character can deal with several in the game, and having the "Courtly Graces" skill turns you into one. |
