Welcome to the "Most-Loved Brothers Grimm Fairy Tale" game! This is a game of elimination to see what one fairy tale is deemed the most loved. It is very easy to play!

How To Play:
We'll start with a list of some of the most famous Grimm's fairy tales. Each fairy tale in the list will start out with 5 stars (*****). In order to play, you will add one star to a fairy tale (+1) and then subtract one star from a fairy tale (-1).

Step 1. Copy and paste the list of fairy tales from the most recent post with the current star ratings.
Step 2. Adjust the star counts according to your picks. Wherever you add a star, be sure mark an extra star in the pasted list. And, wherever you subtract a star, be sure to erase a star. This way we can keep track of the current star counts for each one.
Step 3. Write a little note at the bottom of the list of your choices. (For example, I give Fairy Tale A +1* and I give Fairy Tale B -1*.)
That's it! Easy to play! And, whatever fairy tale is left standing in the list will be our "most-loved" fairy tale!

Just remember:
Be sure not to play twice in a row. Just wait for someone else to take a turn and then you are free to make your next play.

I give +1* to Hansel and Gretel and give -1* to Rapunzel.

This will probably have nothing to do w/anything, but I saw -"Brother's Grimm" and I've written of this. That's pretty much how my mind works...ADD and all

Just a little beautiful irony:

This is a clever idea!

Hi, Elleise! I can remember watching that movie some time ago, but barely remember much about it. I love to see all of those fairy tale movies! "Ever After" was always one of my favorites.

Hi, Sandra! I remembered a game similar to this from a television show forum where they used all of the main characters. It was fun to see what everyone thought in the end!

I figured I would wait for someone else to take a turn before posting another pick. :-P Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend so far!

I loved "Ever After". Right now, I am watching the DVD of "The 10th Kingdom" that was a TV mini-series in 2000. I love it!

Has anyone else see it or remember it?

I'm going to play again. Maybe someone will soon join us in this game.

Hi again, Sandra! :-) I seem to have a lot of catching up to do in the forums, it has been such a busy time at our house lately. I could vaguely remember hearing the name of the series you mentioned, "The 10th Kingdom," and so I looked it up on IMDB.com. It sounds really good! I think I shall have to add it to my pending watch list! And, thanks for peeking in at the game and trying to keep it going! I shall make my next move as well.
