About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready, crew! The "Another Big Expansion" for Galaxy Trucker doesn't disappoint, bringing even more of the chaos we love. If you thought the base game was already frantic, just wait until you see what this beauty adds. We've got new tiles to build even more bizarre and, perhaps, more resilient ships. And it doesn't stop there: a new support team can be hired to give that extra boost to your intergalactic journey.

But things get serious with the new ship classes, including the gigantic Class IV ships. Yes, you read that right, IV! And the universe isn't playing around: prepare to encounter more treacherous cards, especially the intruders that can now board your ship. They'll wander around, eat your supplies, and blow things up if your crew isn't quick enough to stop them. It almost sounds like a different game, right? But don't worry, it's just Galaxy Trucker getting even more intense. This expansion raises the level of challenge and fun, ensuring that each game is a new adventure full of dangers and laughs. If you enjoy the madness of Galaxy Trucker, this expansion is a must-have for those seeking more excitement and new challenges.
