Galileo Galilei is a deep and immersive euro-style board game by Pink Troubadour, designed for 1 to 4 players. Step into the role of a 16th-century astronomer at the dawn of modern science. Your goal is to advance your telescope, explore celestial phenomena, deliver university lectures, and build a legacy through scientific discoveries — all while navigating the complex intellectual landscape of the Renaissance.
🎮 How Do You Play Galileo Galilei?
On each turn, players move their telescope pawn along a circular track to select action spaces. Each space grants:
- A fixed action, and
- A variable action based on a rotating tile.
Through these actions, you can:
- Collect colored observation dice,
- Spot comets in the sky,
- Deliver lectures at the university,
- Upgrade your actions, and
- Add powerful discovery cards to your personal library.
The game ends once the final discovery card is taken. Players then calculate points based on university prestige, reputation, discoveries, and other achievements.
