THE STORY
Shrek, bored of his random life as a father and husband, starts missing the old days when he used to scare people and act like a "real ogre", and wishes that he could relive those days:
One day, he stumbles upon a man named Rumpelstiltskin. When Rumpelstiltskin hears the complaints of Shrek about wanting to live the old days again, he tells him that there is a way to do it, and tricks him into signing a pact that somehow magically leads him to a completely different Far Far Away, a whole other dimension.
In this version of Far Far Away, Rumpelstiltskin is king. Also, instead of being scared of ogres, people hunt them. The Donkey, who was Shrek's best friend, is scared of him. Puss in Boots, the most agile cat ever known, becomes obese and lazy, and most importantly, the one person who matters the most for Shrek, his wife Fiona, doesn't even know him; they have never met.
In this world of chaos, Shrek is the only one who is conscious of the change that occurred in Far Far Away, and he is the only one who has the ability to change everything back to normal. Therefore, it's up to him to restore his world, in order to save his friends and family, and most importantly himself.
