Once Upon A Line Preview, a unique story game (the first scratch off adventure game)

Description provided by Tabletop Bellhop on YouTube:

Moe's always on the lookout for games that do something new and Once Upon A Line is a board game doing something completely different. This is a story driven campaign game where the main mechanic is scratching off squares on a the board while looking for words. There's nothing else quite like Once Upon A Line.

The Butterfly’s Breath On Earth, in a not too distant future, a pandemic has decimated most of the human population, leaving room for insects to become gigantic. The survivors exploit the insects’ prodigious abilities to construct a new world. But all that may soon crumble. Once Upon a Line is a narrative game played out in chapters. Embody heroes and use their actions to play on a board of scratch off ink. Uncover hidden words and take their corresponding cards. This will reveal the next part of the story as well as new words to find in order to accomplish your mission. Fully immerse yourself in a personalized adventure. Elude traps (riddles, anagrams, palindromes, etc.). Complete your Quest before scratching off the last square on the Line of Tragedy. ******************** Links: Head over to the Tabletop Bellhop blog where you'll find more tabletop gaming content, including game and game night advice, reviews, and more: https://tabletopbellhop.com Check out Moe's written review of Once Upon A Line on the Tabletop Bellhop website: https://tabletopbellhop.com/game-reviews/once-upon-a-line-preview/ Back this unique game on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/perteetfracas/once-upon-a-line-the-butterflys-breath ******************** Sign up for our newsletter: https://newsletter.tabletopbellhop.com Find us all over the web: Dice.camp: https://dice.camp/@TabletopBellhop/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tabletopbellhop/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/tabletopbellhop Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tabletopbellhop/ Twitch: https://twitch.tv/tabletopbellhop
