Consentacle is a science fiction cooperative board game about negotiating consensual sex between two femme characters: a human astronaut and a tentacled alien. It was designed by Naomi Clark and illustrated by James Harvey.[1][2] Consentacle was published in 2018 after a successful Kickstarter campaign raised $154,609.[3] The prototype for Consentacle won the Impact Award at IndieCade 2015.[4]
Clark, who is part Japanese, was inspired by the idea of reclaiming hentai to represent positive queer relationships.[2] In a 2019 interview with Alex Meehan for Tabletop Gaming, she explained, "I believed that the concept could be reclaimed and turned around; Consentacle is not what people expect from a game with tentacles in it."[5]
