Game rules Story Cubes

There are no fixed rules but many possibilities to play the game. Roll all 9 story dice. Start with “Once upon a time…..” and tell a story that connects the pictures on all 9 story blocks. Start with the picture that captures your imagination the most or tell the story in the order the dice fell. With Rory’s Story Cubes there are no wrong answers, the goal is to help your imagination get going with the story blocks.

Thinking in images suits our brain

You can do it! The human brain thinks in images and finds a way to connect the pictures on the cubes. The more you play, the easier it becomes to tell longer, more extensive stories. You can play alone or in a group, in which everyone alternately tells a story based on the pictures on all 9 story blocks.

Game possibilities

There are many possibilities. Think for yourself how you like to play the game! For example, divide the 9 rolled dice into groups of 3 and use them for the beginning, middle and end of your story. Or let a player start telling and ask the fellow players to finish the story further on the basis of the following dice. Or write down your story, or draw it. Use all the dice or a few. Do you start your story with ‘Once upon a time…’, or with ‘In the distant distant future…’ Or give a story a different atmosphere by giving a different opening sentence such as: ‘It was a dark and stormy night…’ ‘When animals could talk…’ ‘It was cold, very cold…’ Everything is possible! Use your imagination both in coming up with the stories and in coming up with the rules / way of playing.
