Great game of improv, strange scoring mechanism
Hobbit Tales is perfect for people who get through life making it up as they go along, as that's the entire point of the game. Players take turns being the narrator, drawing six cards from a deck of story moments that can be locations, people, things, or situations. The narrator then has to tell a story using those six cards in the order they choose.
The other players, meanwhile, are tasked with disrupting the story by playing cards that introduce monsters or adverse conditions that the narrator must incorporate into their story. If the narrator runs out of cards (cards are removed if monster cards 'succeed' - that is, get a high enough roll) and is blocked when 'improvising' (having to draw cards directly from the story pile), the narrator's turn ends.
While that's all quite fun, the weird part is the scoring. Narrators get to draw a random point tile for each card they play in their story (with the exception of their first and last cards). Opposing players get a point tile for each successful monster card they play. These point tiles have a number value of 1-3 printed on them, and players must choose whether to hide them under a coaster or present them publicly as points to buy pretend beer. The player that spends the most on their beer points then gets a bonus, which is a bit of a gamble as points hidden under the coaster will always count towards their score total.
And then there's also a vote to see who told the best story and award bonus points for that.
The problem is that there really isn't an objective way to score storytelling, so I think Cubicle 7 tried to come up with something at least charming. But it's so random as to be relatively pointless. I would suggest that if you're playing 3-4 players that you just stick to voting on best storyteller and let that decide. For 2 players, do away with winning altogether and just have fun telling stories to each other.
Having played several rounds with my kids, I do wish there were more cards in the respective decks. It doesn't take long to encounter them all. An expansion to this game would be fantastic, but given the age of the game and its relative obscurity, I don't foresee that happening.
Overall a very fun game. Modifying the rules a bit makes it even more so. And break out your rune chart to decipher the game board's runework border.

Know what you're buying
Product is a knock off and says "Siar Wars" on the box. Photos on box look like they were printed from a low resolution source. Figure itself is okay if not a bit messy looking. But as a display figure from a distance, it's okay.

Clever sign, low resolution
I love the concept and execution of this sly Frogger sign, but the artwork was pretty obviously scaled up from a lower resolution JPG source as there is compression artifacting around areas of high contrast. I definitely expected the artwork to be a lot more crisp/defined than it is. It looks good enough at a distance - just don't stand too close to it.
