Fools on a Journey: a Game of Teamwork, Rules, and Failure -or- A Treatise on the Divination of Betrayal
The game focuses on interpretation of the cards intersecting with the characters' motivations to create interesting new stories, with very simple character-building based off a prisoners' dilemma-esque minigame, basing the story on the results of a semi-competitive card game between the players. This is a journey of self-discovery, of regular discovery, of exploration, and of potentially catastrophic failure. In this game,  some number of people collectively and competitively narrate one of many series of events that all follow the same pattern (from card 0, The Fool, to card 21, The World).
