{"product_id":"deadly-dowagers","title":"Deadly Dowagers Board Game","description":"\u003cp\u003eDeadly Dowagers is a game of marriage, murder, as well as money. You compete featuring the other lovely ladies in your town by strategically growing your dowry, while being careful not to gain too much infamy, or the duke may pass you over for another bride!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou play as a middle-class Victorian woman who would kill to be a duchess. Since you were not lucky enough to be born into the aristocracy, the only way to attract a noble is to have a large enough dowry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFortunately, when your parents died, they left you with a small dowry and some land. You must build wealth through investments and strategic serial marriages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGameplay is divided into rounds; each round consists of four separate phases: drafting, investment, husband, along with housekeeping. In each round, each player drafts a hand of cards, pick-and-pass style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCertain cards are played into players' tableaus. Instant cards are used as well as discarded.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlayers using death cards partially reset their tableau as well as get income. Players discard down to eight cards in hand, then draft four new cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe game ends when one player has no current husband, no more than 9 infamy, spends 120 crowns, and plays a remarry card to marry the Duke. That player wins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVendor: SPARKWORKS\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SPARKWORKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48021011661017,"sku":"SPK2031EN","price":62.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0759\/8771\/4265\/files\/LP_810082830989_1_429803c7-05af-4cc8-b559-4352b2cbce9f.jpg?v=1772002157","url":"https:\/\/www.supergamers.com.au\/products\/deadly-dowagers","provider":"SuperGamers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
