Overview

"Family Values? Nah, Family Valuables!" You and 2-10 greedy relatives were living it up on the galaxy’s finest space station—until a fire turned your vacay into a screaming, stuff-grabbing frenzy! The rescue shuttle’s pods are here, but in Relative Space, it’s every family member for themselves. Hurl your ukulele in to nix their sock monkey—because nothing beats the glee of screwing over your family mid-catastrophe. It’s a chaotic blast of ensuring your items make it on the pods as you battle to save your loot. First to pack everything jets off triumphant, waving bye-bye to the flaming rubble and their tears!

In Relative Space, each player has a pile of 12 cards representing their valuables, with the 5 cards at the bottom of the pile facedown. In turn order, players must play one card to an available escape pod. The card played must be clear of cards on top, and should be of equal or high value than the top card in the escape pod. First player to pack all 12 of the cards in front of them wins!
