Zhenya’s Wonder Tales

Enter a dark world of Slavic- and Baltic-inspired fairy stories. Your perfectly innocent and kind-hearted host, Zhenya, will guide you. Fall in love with a bear. Bow before the King of the Snakes. Marry a shape-changing fairy—or fight one to the death. Search for your stolen skin, high above Devil’s Bridge. Attend the funeral of Night and console their children, Dawn and Dusk.

Each wonder tale begins as a set of 22 cards that serve as illumination, inspiration, and grim predestination. As you play, you and your friends will be asked to make choices that will shape the direction of the tale toward happiness—or ruin. A single tale takes about an hour to reach its often surprising, but always satisfying, conclusion.

Old Zhenya is waiting for you! Won’t you come in, have a hot glass of fireweed tea, and tell a wonder tale together?
