Space Bods sends two of you sixteen shapes from beyond the atmosphere, starting with They Came For Me — a full alien abduction, one player lifted mid-beam, one player very committed to the panic. Live Long & Prosper is just the Vulcan salute, which turns out to separate people who can actually split their fingers from people who cannot. You Needed A Shower is a meteor shower streaking down, all trails and no mercy on your joints. It suits a family stargazing night that's run out of actual stars to point at, a sci-fi fan who knows their ISS from their UFO, or anyone who's ever wondered what a black hole would look like with two bodies standing in for it. Auntie Zeffie judges from what feels like a genuinely cosmic distance, and scores accordingly. Sixteen shapes, eight dealt a round, so the abduction card doesn't come up every game. No spacesuit required, though the ambition helps.

How it works

  1. The card flips.
  2. You've got 10 seconds for the two of you to work out who's what and make the shape together.
  3. Bods! The camera catches it, Auntie Zeffie scores it and judges you.
  4. Share the result, or don't.
