About this game

Rebel Princess flips the classic fairy tale ending on its head: every prince charming who crashes this five-day party is trying to propose, and your entire job is staying gloriously, defiantly single. It plays like a sharp trick-taking game, follow suit, chase the highest card, except the cards you win aren't always the ones you want, since scooping up a suitor's card means dodging his marriage proposal for the rest of the game. Each of the five rounds adds its own twist rule, so the strategy shifts daily just like an actual chaotic house party. Light to teach, quick to finish, and a delightfully petty premise dressed up in fairy tale illustrations.
