Welcome to Storybrooke, Maine—a picturesque, foggy New England coastal town where time has stood completely still for twenty-eight years. Its quirky residents are actually legendary fairytale characters, stripped of their memories and trapped in mundane modern lives by the Evil Queen's Dark Curse.
Now, with the arrival of the Savior, the hands of the town clock have finally ticked. As a resident starting to remember your true magical heritage—or an outsider who somehow breached the town lines—you must navigate the deadly power struggles between Mayor Regina Mills, the enigmatic pawnbroker Mr. Gold, and the forces of light. Will you help break the curse, or will you find yourself written out of the story forever?
