Simple Steps To Play Tales
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you play Tales card game?
Playing Tales is simple — no rules to memorize. Pull a card, read the question out loud, and take turns answering. There's no timer, no winning or losing, just genuine conversation. Many families create their own house rules, like passing on a question or letting everyone answer before moving to the next card.
What is the best conversation starter game for families?
Tales Family Edition is designed specifically for multi-generational conversations, with questions that work for kids, parents, and grandparents alike. Unlike trivia or party games, Tales focuses on real stories and meaningful answers — the kind of conversation starters that bring families closer instead of just filling time.
Is Tales good for family game night?
Yes — Tales was built for exactly this. It's a low-pressure, no-prep family game night option that gets everyone talking, laughing, and sharing stories they've never heard before, whether it's a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
What ages is Tales appropriate for?
The Family Edition is designed for players of all ages, from young kids to grandparents. Families have used it successfully with players ranging from 5 to 90+ years old. If you're shopping specifically for younger kids or teens, we also offer Kids and Teens Editions with age-tailored questions.
How long does a round of Tales take to play?
There's no set length — that's part of the beauty of it. A single question can spark a two-minute answer or a 20-minute story. Most families play for 20–60 minutes, pulling as many or as few cards as they like.
Can Tales be played with large groups?
Absolutely. Tales works well for both small family dinners and large multi-generational gatherings, reunions, and holiday parties. Many families report using it successfully with groups of 10 or more, ranging across several generations.
What makes Tales different from other conversation card games?
Tales questions are designed to spark real, meaningful stories — not just quick icebreaker answers. Each edition (Family, Couples, Life Story, Friends, Teens, Kids) is tailored to a specific relationship and stage of life, so the questions feel relevant and personal rather than generic.
