Tales is a storytelling-based party game that incorporates cards from Cards Against Humanity. Players use their cards to fill in blanks within prewritten story templates, creating humorous or unexpected narratives.

During gameplay, each participant selects cards to respond to secret prompts without knowing the context of the overall story. Once all prompts are completed, the story is read aloud, revealing the collective result of the group's choices.

The game includes a leather-bound book of story templates and a collection of matchboxes containing small prompt cards.
