Narata Storytelling Cards Core Deck Review

No website. Some URLs lead to the same page. Maps are great for creating stories. The physical cards themselves are solid and thick. Very well done.

I liked these cards but not as artistic (it's good but just not for me. Too bold and flashy for me). Also, you can surely have a good time creating stories or just getting ideas.

These decks of cards help me to come up with ideas for stories and also some small scenes. Ten categories help to understand what should be in the story. Great work has been done here!

I used to use story cubes and love them, but sometimes words work better. There are many clues on each card and if you shuffle them and draw 2-3 or 4 you can get great ideas for whatever your purpose. I use them to create stories and random encounters for role-playing games, but they can easily be used for creative writing and all sorts of other creative endeavors.

I bought six other similar products at the same time, so all seven fit. It is by far the most useful and easiest to use. It provides a great starting point for piecing together story ideas, but the way the cards are designed allows plenty of room to turn them into your own unique idea. I have a degree in creative writing so please trust me when I say you will have a hard time finding anything better.

I like these. Great art, great way to generate writing ideas. It didn't cure my writer's block, but they did help me brainstorm ideas that might help in an emergency. It can also be a fun make up a story game. The art is great, as are the keywords. Reminds me of the Illuminati card game from the 90s. My only real complaint is that it advertises extensions and I searched for extensions but couldn't find them. I really hope they are made and released, it's such a great product

With over 200 cards and an instruction booklet, the NARATA Storytelling Cards Core Deck lives up to its claim as a powerful brainstorming tool. All the creative mind has to do is pick up a card and come up with different story ideas based on what's on the card. The only downside, if you can call it a minus point at all, is that the official site really doesn't have as many additional offers for using the cards as stated in the booklet. However, this omission is not enough to not give a five…

What an excellent product. I bought NARATA STORY CARDS to help my high school creative writing students overcome writer's block and creative deadlocks. Even before any of my students saw the cards, my 8-year-old son and his mom were laughing, discussing, and writing stories based on the ideas they got from "playing" with the deck. Well-crafted, elegant-looking cards are hard to resist, and once you start exploring the intriguing possibilities inherent in each card combination, you can't help…

I'm a gamemaster, author, and collector of storytelling tools—tarot cards, Rory's story dice, clue books, etc.—and the tools I've needed , these are my favourites. The 27-card logline method has given me some pretty original ideas—things I wouldn't have thought of myself—and that's what makes these cards so successful in my book. Perhaps the best thing about the cards is that they contain several related clues in the bottom half - for example, the "Zombie" card invites you to read it…
