“Since we are safer-at-home here in Southern California during the mismanaged handling of the COVID-19 pandemic by the trump administration, we have been looking for ways to be entertained.
The Polite Society: The Jane Austen Board Game has been so much fun. We cannot wait to invite other Jane Austen fans over to play once we are able to have guests in the house. The first night we played I lost 3 straight times to my adult daughter, but I am developing a strategy now and hope to even the score.”

“The directions are easy to understand and follow. Even if you know very little about Jane Austen's works, you can still easily play this game. And for those who are more familiar with her works, there are different options for playing the game which can make it more challenging, if you so desire.
One of my favorite parts of the game are the guest cards. Each one has a drawing of a character from one of Austen's six novels or Lady Susan (or Jane Austen herself!), along with a quote about/from the character. Fun to look at and read!
And of course, the whole object of the game, which is to seat eight guests at your table, gives each player a chance to put together a group of various Jane Austen characters, and to consider how interesting a dinner party that would be!
I would highly recommend this game.”
