About the game

What is Consentacle?

In the words of its designer, Consentacle is: a cooperative card game for two players; that represents consensual sexual encounter between a curious human and a tentacled alien; where the players have to figure out how to build trust and do sexual things with each other, even if they can’t communicate easily. User summary: Partners try to build card combinations via simultaneous plays. "Trust" and "Satisfaction" are the currency and victory points of Consentacle, which are earned and/or lost based on card combinations.
