Grave Robbers from Outer Space (2001)

About this game

A fast-paced, humorous look at B-rated science-fiction movies. Players create bad horror and sci-fi films using cards that represent characters, props, locations, creatures and special effects. Creatures are used to attack characters. Props and locations can strengthen characters against creatures. Whoever has the strongest characters in play when the credits roll wins the game. Part of the B-Movie Series of card games.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 13 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
