Description

Get ready to host the ultimate dinner party with Polite Society, a board game that brings Jane Austen's beloved characters to life. Players compete to collect guests, from Elizabeth Bennet to Emma Woodhouse, to complete their table and win the game. With easy-to-learn rules, 2 to 5 players can join in on the fun, which lasts around 30 minutes. Using societal assets like wit, wealth, heart, and beauty, players strategically seat their guests to generate more assets each turn. The better the seat, the more likely the character will produce assets. With unique quotes from Jane Austen's novels and personal letters on each card, this game is a must-play for literature lovers and game enthusiasts alike. Published in 2018 and designed by Katharine Turner, Polite Society is a delightful game that combines dice rolling, hand management, and card drafting for a fun and engaging experience.
