Great for your child
It turns frantic shouting into a fun game where they get to lead and follow directions simultaneously.
Great for you
It is a rare game that requires everyone to be in the same room, focused entirely on each other.
Parent notes
Ensure the volume is at a comfortable level to prevent ear strain. Remind players to be careful with their physical devices during the excitement.
The Connection Grade™ breakdown
Four things we grade, each one judged on what this game actually does. Open any row to see why.
Spaceteam forces immediate verbal coordination because your screen only displays orders for your partner's control panel, though the cross-talk can easily deteriorate into disorganized noise where neither player can hear the other.
Skills this builds
- Calling out absurd control instructions under strict countdown timers
- Listening selectively to catch your own assigned switches amidst partner shouting
- Coordinating physical screen maneuvers together when wormholes flip your displays
Try this together
When the screen covers with green sludge, tell your partner immediately so they know you have to wipe before flipping their switch.
