Love Letter Variations


So, today we're going to take a break from zombie slaying and talk about a game called Love Letter. It's a bluffing game based on deduction and luck. Players take the role of suitors vying for the love of the princess. The game is easy to set up, and takes about 15-20 minutes to play. If you don't know how to play, here is a quick tutorial.

Love Letter is one of the games my play group and I play a lot of, especially in between heavier games. Eventually, though, you get to know the game to well and people become predictable. So here are some variations that will hopefully spice up the game.

Love Letter: Wingman - Plays like any game of Love Letter, except you are now playing as the wingman of the player to your left (you're his/her right hand man). Basically, you want that player to win so you get the point for the round. What's fun about this is, the player you're trying to help, is also trying to get you out.

Love Letter: Blind Love - Plays like any game of Love Letter, except no one knows their cards. Basically, you play blind. This variation is more for the laughs than the strategy. Many times has the princess been played turn 1.
