Lady's Choice

A card game for 2-6 players

Can you impress the lady enough to win her hand in marriage? Will you be the perfect choice, or will you take all her love and give nothing back? And on your turn to be the lady, will you find true love, or heart break?

Lady's Choice is a light bluffing game about the ugly side of romance.

Gentleman's Choice

A card game for 3-6 players

Gentleman's Choice is the sequel to Lady's Choice for those who'd prefer a game about ladies fighting over a gentleman to a game about gentlemen fighting over a lady.

Play it by itself, or combine with Lady's Choice to play Ladies and Gentlemen's Choice for 4 to 9 players.

Printed a Copy? Consider Donating

A full colour print and play print file typically sells for USD$5 (AUD$7.61) per game, just to be allowed to look at the files. So if you have printed files for both games, and had an enjoyable time with them, consider donating AUD$15, or whatever amount you felt the games were worth when you finished playing them. Did my game cause your divorce? Consider donating extra.

If you used the print and play to teach someone how to play, and that person later purchased a copy for themselves, this is better than a $15 donation.

Quick Lady's Choice Rules Summary

Each of 70 attribute cards has a dandiness value. Some cards stop other cards from scoring. The cards that DO score (positive or negative) are totalled for a dandiness value of the gentleman. This is used to calculate the dandiness ranking. (Most Dandy, Second most, and so on.)

A gentleman can boast (show off an attribute and draw one) or change (discard one and draw two) on his turn.

The lady can court (randomly see cards from a chosen gent) or marry on her turn.

The married gentleman gains points according to his rank. 1st? 1 point. 2nd? 2 points, and so on. Also an extra point if he's the worst. The lady gains points according to the reverse rank. Worst? No points. Second worst? 1 point. Third worst? 2 points, and so on. Also an extra point if he's the best.

Once all players have been the lady, the game ends.

Quick Ladies and Gentlemen's Choice Rules Summary

You must own both games to play.

2-4 players play as ladies, and 2-5 players play as gentlemen. Gentlemen get four turns to boast, change, or woo. Ladies get four turns to gossip, change, or court. All gentleman propose to ladies. All ladies choose which proposal to accept. Once all ladies are married, all cards are revealed (like the cards above). Everyone gains (or loses) points according to how far above (or below) them their spouse is. Keep playing until someone's points is in the negative. Most points wins.

Quick Ladies and Gentlemen's Choice LGBT+ Rules Summary

You must own both games to play.

For 4-10 players. Players start with 2 gentlemen attributes and 2 lady attributes, but alternate setup choices allow players to only choose cards from one deck. All players may boast, change, woo, or court no matter which deck their cards come from. Scoring is similar to the other version, except occasionally there will be polygamous relationships. (This is to solve a mathematical edge case. It is not a comment on the nature of real LGBT+ relationships.)

Lady's Choice Kickstarter Exclusive

The Tommy Wiseau Kickstarter Exclusive card was supposed to be out of print, and that was the plan until Stripe messed up. So now THIS will be the last time I print. (For real this time, I swear!)

Only 21 left. (Refresh browser to update number.)

If you don't get the joke of it, watch the video below.

Gentleman's Choice Almost Had a Preorder Bonus

Including a preorder bonus that makes a game better is immoral. Why shoot a game in the knee for all time for the sake of a few extra sales while it's held hostage? Therefore, my preorder exclusives will always make the game worse.

Trouble is, the Liam Neeson Fighting a Wolf card improves the game, so it disqualified itself from becoming a preorder bonus, and instead will be included in the game as standard for as long as it remains in print.

Watch this video to learn more about Liam Neeson Wolf Fighting, and how it improves everything.

Why Preorder?

The answer was supposed to be to get the Liam Neeson Fighting a Wolf card, but now that you're getting that anyway, follow me behind the curtain to the business of game design.

Starting with the obvious, the factory needs to know how many copies to print on the 26th of February. So you'll miss out on the 27th? No, I'll be ordering extra copies, and if I could sell that many copies in one day, I'd be doing that right now instead of waiting until the 27th to do it. If you wait until 2025 to order, that's a bit riskier. Games are printed at least 500 at a time, but ideally more to get the unit cost down. If I'm sold out and you want 2 games, what do I do with the remaining 498?

But more than that. The timing of your preorder determines how the money will be spent:

  • Ordering before 13th of January? I might get higher budget video commercials.
  • Late January? The videos are already done, but I can show those videos to more people.
  • Before 26th of Feb? Extra money means a larger order, leaving them available for sale longer.
  • March? At least it will still improve my odds of selling Choice Games to a manager so I can focus on game design full time.
  • September? Sales at this point will probably have no impact on the direction of the business, but it could potentially change what my family has for dinner that night.

In much the same way a small amount of water means more to a seed than a tree, an earlier sale is more useful to me than a later sale. If you have ever purchased anything "before it was cool", you are the reason it could later afford to become cool.
