Board Game Arena keeps expanding its catalog with regular releases, and this week, a brand-new title has joined the platform: Galactic Cruise. This worker-placement and resource-management game doesn’t send you into a heroic space opera, but instead right into the futuristic cruise industry. Yes, really!
A Space Cruise… Corporate Style
In Galactic Cruise, you’re not a galactic explorer, nor are you fighting lethal alien creatures (sorry, xenomorph fans).
You take on the role of a supervisor in a luxury space-travel company, and your objectives are far more corporate:
➡️ Earn Victory Points by building ships,
➡️ Keep your guests happy,
➡️ Grow your business,
➡️ And most importantly… impress the board of directors to secure the coveted position of CEO in three years.
An original and delightfully offbeat theme, perfectly aligned with the modern eurogame landscape.
An Accessible Yet Strategic Management Game
Board Game Arena describes Galactic Cruise as a worker-placement and resource-management game that’s accessible but still offers depth.
The actions are straightforward, but the game’s 12 unique actions provide plenty of strategic possibilities and combo potential.
Good news:
➡️ A solo mode is available thanks to a guided tutorial,
➡️ And you can of course challenge other players on your way to becoming the ultimate CEO.
A Carefully Crafted Digital Adaptation
BGA extends warm thanks to the team behind the game:
-
T.K. King,
-
Dennis Northcott,
-
Kinson Key Games,
-
And a special shout-out to Victoria_La for her dedication in developing the digital version.
Always nice to see the platform acknowledging the contributors behind such adaptations.
Available Now
Galactic Cruise is officially available on Board Game Arena, and can be played for free just like most of the site’s library.
Ready to board?
Buckle up, prepare for a cruise filled with optimization and corporate maneuvering… and play fair!
