Culture Shock Rules, The Game of Explorers and Aliens. Culture Shock has to be played with two teams in separate rooms. Or at least sufficiently far apart that they can’t overhear each other. You act as go-between and GM for the game. If there are a lot of players it might be better to run it with two Controllers.

The teams are:

• The Space Explorers – who are, in fact Spanish Conquistadors (up to 4 players)
• The Terraanians – who are in fact south American natives (up to about 6 players)

The scene is the arrival of the Spanish man o’war (=Explorer Starship) off the coast of a native village (= the Terrainian home world). The scenario disguised as a science fiction ‘first contact’ situation so that we can explore the problems of cross- cultural communication. The player briefings are full of sci-fi nonsense and buffoonery.
