Not exactly a board game but I would expect rock paper scissors game patterns to be universal.

I think dice combination games are going to be popular as well.

These are great answers. In general I think leveraging uncertainty and imperfect information is going to be pretty universal.

And they would be shaped by whatever they could form with their hands.

It doesn't even require physical representation. You can play it verbally, or if that results in simultaneity issues, each player separately says their play for the next round to a judge.

Hell, if the players are far enough away from each other and shouting out their answers, you can solve the simultaneity issue. By the time you've heard the other player's move you're already halfway through saying your own move, and can't pretend you were going to say something else.
