Description

An after dinner game for the pleasure of 4 players, based on the world of Jane Austen.
Players spin a teetotum (top) and move their tokens around a circular track, trying to land on 4 spaces to collect the attributes needed for marriage in Austen's day: Education, Wealth, Breeding and Beauty. After collecting these, players race to land in the center where they can be declared the winner.
The spin mechanic is varied by having 1st the player & then the left-hand neighbor spin; the player has a choice of 4 different methods of calculating their move between these two spins: Adding them together, Subtracting the lower from the higher, Taking only the Lower or the Higher.
Published in the 1990's; packaged in a cylindrical box, with a small folding board, separate rules in English and French, attractive wooden tokens for the 4 attributes, 1 wooden teetotum/spinner and 4 small wooden horseshoes for player tokens, with the small pieces in a small cloth drawstring bag.
