From Japan, this is a drafting card game that is non-collectible! Using awesome original, manga-stlye art (another appeal to players), a story will unfold and points will be scored. Who will get the most points and therefore tell the best story? Includes a never before published variant by Magic: The Gathering designer Richard Garfield.

Fairy Tale is a nice filler, his main feature lies in his drafting mechanics: every turn (of a total of four) the players chose cards passing the rest from them, five cards for player.
Then the players play three of their five cards trying to get the most renumerative combo: there are cards giving point if there another card in play, cards that give points based on their number, conditional cards that requires more cards of one type to give points and so on.
Interaction is granted by some type of cards that "turn on/off" (turn up or down the face of the card) other cards (or even themselves).
Fairy Tale is a nice game, a little filler (a game can be finished in about twenty minutes) with an interesting drafting mechanic that limit ramdomness and introduce some depth (better to get that card and give that other card to that player even if he can complete that combo?).
