It is a time of elegance, wit, and exacting decorum, and you, a handsome young lady of respectable family and pleasing address, have just completed the perusal of a most delightfully engaging novel. You begin to consider, were you a heroine upon such pages, whether your character would be marked by wit and charm, vigour and capability, honour and wealth. Amidst the genteel diversions and drawing-room delights so prettily described, your heart begins to fix not on the trifles, but on the heroine’s romance, and you find yourself, perhaps unwisely, wishing for a story not unlike her own.
Endearment is a strategy board game where you take on the role of one of Jane Austen's beloved heroines as you traverse Regency England, improve your traits, and engage in social rivalries in pursuit of a timeless romance.
At the start of each Chapter, Settings and Characters are added to the game board, and a Plot card is drawn. Then players take turns visiting Town to gain Persuasion from the Tea House, buy Dresses from the Modiste, and invite or search for Characters in the Character deck and discard. Once all players have performed their Town actions, players take turns visiting Settings and interacting with Characters in a series of rounds until all Settings have been visited and the Chapter ends.
As with any Jane Austen novel, the game ends with a wedding (or sometimes more than one wedding)! Once one or more players are married, the current Chapter is completed, the game ends, and bonus points are scored. The player with the most Endearment wins!

It's a gorgeous game! My wife loves it, all the details are prefect. I think she could spend hours just looking at the prints. The game play is fun too.
I am a huge Jane Austen fan..I visited Bath last year..love her work..the game is a godsend..so beautiful and informative..the price is reasonable and the graphics are very well done. I ordered the game and it got to me faster then expected.
Got it for my wife, she loves the Jane Austen movies and time period. She also loves board games so it made perfect sense. We played it with my brother and sister-in-law who also love board games. The game was very fun and well designed, the detail art was crazy good.
Had a tea party with the girls (and one guy) and it was a massive hit. Easy to learn and once you get it down it goes fast.
Beautifully made! Very fun once you get started! :))
The game “Endearment” has good mechanics, and is surprisingly strategic. “I want to marry Mr. Darcy, but in order to do so I have to talk to other people, too, which means he may leave for lack of interest and then I have to figure out a way to get him back in town so I can visit with him again.” The rub in the design is that the words and symbols on the cards is so small you can’t read them without getting very close to the cards in-play on the board.
Beautiful board ! It takes a few tries to get the rules memorized, but it’s a fun game to play with your book club!
So much fun! Has started a Dux Somnium addiction, must own them all!
Great company. I have loved every game I've got from them. Having been brought up on Jane Austin this one has a special place. It is a wonderful homage the her work.
