There is an undeniable charm to Rebel Princess.
I smiled ear-to-ear when a friend first introduced the game to us: We’re all princesses at a 5-day all-girls party, but those pesky Prince Charmings have snuck in. And now, we’re doing everything we can to avoid unwanted marriage proposals and be the only single princess by week’s end. Who among us will be THE Rebel Princess?

It was not only nominated by the BoardGameGeek community for a Golden Geek Award, but Rebel Princess also did this before it was officially released in the United States. Very few games can pull that off — undeniable charm.
