About the game
What you do in a play session
In "Tales & Games: The Three Little Pigs", each player becomes a little pig dreaming of building the perfect home for the winter. No hammers or scaffolds are needed—everything is decided by a special pink die. On your turn you may roll the die up to three times, trying to pull symbols of straw, wood or brick that can be exchanged for doors, windows and roofs. Each piece adds volume and charm to your house, and the larger and more elaborate the dwelling, the more points you score at the end. The danger comes from the wolf: rolling two wolf symbols lets you huff and puff, blowing down another player's house and cutting their points. The game is quick (about 20 minutes), light‑hearted and family‑friendly, yet still offers strategic choices about when to stop rolling and when to risk the "huff and puff". Components are bright and easy to handle, and the box is shaped like a storybook, featuring illustrated pages of the classic tale. The final goal is to balance constructing your own home while surviving the wolf’s attacks, ensuring your shelter is the most sturdy and high‑scoring. "The Three Little Pigs" blends dice rolling, push‑your‑luck, and take‑that mechanics in a simple package, making it an excellent gateway for newcomers to dice games or a themed family hit.
