The Princess and The P's
Requirements
Description
Can you prompt someone to guess "GEPPETTO"...
...without saying, "Pinocchio" or "puppet"?
Can you point at “PAPYRUS...”
...without saying "Egypt" or “paper”?
Can you give the impression of "PARTRIDGE"...
...without saying "pear tree”?
Prince Percy wants to propose to Penelope. But the royal parents insist she pass a “P-test” prior to his proposal. They’ve perched the potential princess atop a pile of poofy mattresses, and planted a plethora of paraphernalia beneath the padding. “A perfect princess…” they pontificate, “will perceive each puny protuberance.”
How can Penelope possibly prevail?
Luckily, the palace peons have stepped in to help.
In The Princess and The P's, all but one of the players (the Palace Peons) prompt the remaining player (the Princess) to guess a collection of secret objects whose names contain the letter P. Successful prompts will earn you Pearls. But in the palace, peons are prohibited from using ANY words that contain the letter P. And if you are caught, you'll be piling up Pebbles instead. Cooperate to help the potential princess prevail as you compete against other Peons for the title of MVP (Most Valuable Peon).

EMILY WILLIX (Designer) is a game designer who loves creating fun, thinky games in small packages. She signed her first game, Battle Dentale, with Bright Eye Games in the UK in 2021. Her games have been finalists in the Game Crafter’s 2021 BGDL Solo Duo Challenge and the 2021 Gateway to Games Contest, as well as the 2021 and 2022 Cardboard Edison Award, and the 2021 Ion Award. Emily is always on the lookout for ways to make games more earth-friendly, and operates her company, Small Furry Games, from a solar- and wind-powered sailboat currently located in the Dominican Republic. When she’s not designing games, Emily is probably proofreading another game designer’s rulebook. Or playing a game. Or thinking about games. But when she’s not doing anything game-related, she spends her time making YouTube videos, maintaining an old boat, and playing music with friends.
