Welcome to The Prodigals Club! You and your fellows are proper Victorian gentlemen who have realized that the lower classes have more fun. Now you are in a friendly competition to see which of you can destroy his own social standing most thoroughly.

This is the role of a proper gentleman: to carefully husband his wealth, to serve in public office, and to speak politely at formal dinners. In other words, the proper gentleman is intolerably dull. Maybe it's time to have a little fun.

The Prodigals Club is a secret fraternity of young gentlemen who are attempting to offend high society as thoroughly as possible. They compete with each other by getting rid of their possessions, by losing votes in an election, and by angering influential people.

In The Prodigals Club, you compete in three separate competitions: trying to lose an election, trying to get rid of all your possessions, or trying to offend the most influential people in high society.

You can play any two competitions in combination or play all three simultaneously. Each competition interacts with the other two. To win, you need to balance your strategy and play all the competitions well.

The Prodigals Club is thematically related to Vladimír Suchý's Last Will. You do not need Last Will to play as Prodigals stands alone; that said, the rulebook also explains how to combine the two games together should you desire to do so.
