Houston: Tenemos un Problema

One small step for man and one giant leap for... screwing up! Welcome to the ANSA Spacecraft Launch Control Center. Amid all the nerves surrounding preparations to kick off the space race, the intern has spilled a cup of coffee on the launch countdown control computer. So now, it’s up to the rest of the team to do the countdown “out loud”...

About the game

What is Houston: Tenemos un Problema

Work together to complete the 10 levels, with rockets that get harder and harder to launch, last-minute checks, and communication glitches. How far will you be able to go? The future of humanity and space is in your hands!

Each player will receive a set of cards that they will look at secretly; these will tell them which numbers in the countdown they must say (or have the player to their right say). When this “countdown” begins, keep in mind that perhaps no player has the card for one of the numbers that needs to be said, in which case any player may say that number aloud... but watch out! Only one player is allowed to say each number, so if two players say a number at the same time or a player says a number that another player has among their cards, we’ll make a mistake and have to start the countdown over… but the clock will keep ticking!

To complete each mission and launch the rocket using the booster included in the game, we’ll all have to work together to count down correctly.
