Setting Up

Rumplestiltskin works best with seven to twenty players and one moderator. It’s best to play with an odd number of players.

For most games, you’ll want your deck to have: Shuffle the cards and pass them out. Everyone should look at their card and memorize their identity, but they must keep their identity secret. Two of the players are now secretly on Team Rumplestiltskin, and the rest are Fairytale Characters.
 * Team Rumplestiltskin (2 Imps)
 * The Fairy Godmother
 * The Sheriff of Nottingham
 * Fairytale Characters (16 Characters)

Two of the Fairytale Characters also have secret powers. Each night, the Fairy Godmother can secretly protect one player from being killed by the Imps, and each night, the Sheriff of Nottingham can secretly investigate one player and find out if they’re an Imp or not.
