	Description Edit \| History

Universalis is a game that stresses interactive storytelling. Universalis has a unique system where coins (or tokens, or stones, etc.) are used from a preexisting pool (called Wealth) to create the setting, and then bid to determine the direction the story takes. Players may Challenge others to take over the story, and Complications may arise when two (or more) players disagree, requiring the roll of the dice to determine the victor.
