Can you win the affection of the princess/prince? In Love Letter, a simple filler card game, players try to vie for the love of the princess/prince by utilizing various members of the court to deliver their love letter.

Bejeweled is based on the popular PC game of the same name. If you just looked at the box, the game looks like a cheap cash grab. As it turns out Bejeweled the board game is surprisingly good.
