Galactic Cruise – High strategy travels through space… in first class
Welcome to Galactic Cruise , where luxury and gravitational propulsion meet in a strategic, economical, and fierce space board game . You are one of the supervisors of a pioneering interstellar tourism company: your goal? To captivate guests with dream experiences among the stars... and climb the ranks to become the next CEO!
Build elegant ships, attract (demanding) alien clients, develop cutting-edge technologies, expand orbital routes. But you're not alone: every action changes markets, opens up new options for others... or stops them at their most crucial moments. A perfect mix of worker placement, multipurpose cards, network development, and resource management , in one of the most beloved titles among Eurogamers with galactic ambitions.
With a well-structured solitaire mode , a challenging strategic curve, and Ian O'Toole's signature graphics, Galactic Cruise is the kind of game that doesn't just sit on the shelf – but returns every month, ready to take off again.
Why choose a space cruise? 👨🚀
- Complete Eurogame experience: excellent with 2-4 players, challenging even solo
- High replayability: thanks to the modular map, variable objectives and chained actions
- Resource management and perfect timing: every turn is a challenge in itself.
- Ian O'Toole's art: the visual elegance every top-tier game deserves.
- Unique competitive atmosphere: everything is on the line to become the new CEO!
Galactic Cruise isn't just a journey through space. It's a quest for power... with a galactic view. 🐸
Product Details
🐸 HOW TO PLAY
1. Plan your shift with worker placement
Each player has astronauts to place on a shared board. Available actions include resource production (oxygen, food, fuel), technological development, personnel recruitment, or shuttle preparation. Choosing your actions is crucial to building your game engine.
2. Build and launch space shuttles
One of the main objectives is to build tourist shuttles and launch them into space. The modules you install affect the duration of the trip, the resources required, and the bonuses gained. Upon returning from the trip, you collect rewards in the form of points, reputation, or resources.
3. Enhance your company with technology and reputation
You can invest in technological development, unlocking permanent upgrades that make your actions more efficient. Additionally, gaining reputation helps you attract more customers and earn extra points throughout the game.
4. Use the “bump” system for intelligent interactions
When you place a worker on an already occupied space, you can replace an opponent. The removed worker immediately becomes available again, and the other player gains a small advantage. This creates continuous and interesting interaction, without frustrating blockers.
5. Reach business goals to accumulate points
By completing specific actions (launches, recruitments, developed modules), you advance on objective tracks that reward you with victory points. When a predetermined number of shuttles have been launched, the game ends and the final score is calculated.

Galactic Cruise
Iconography
Here, you don't fly to explore. You fly to dominate the star market.
A deep management game between interstellar cruises, advanced technologies and CEO dreams.
Galactic Cruise – Space Luxury and Galactic Strategies
Imagine a future where orbital tourism is no longer science fiction but a luxury business.
In Galactic Cruise , you oversee a company focused on elite star travel : you'll design ships, attract wealthy guests, and navigate an ever-evolving space economy.
Every move is a CEO choice: expand the galactic network , innovate technology, and deploy your staff in the right spots on the modular board.
Only those who can get the company off the ground and beat the competition will rise to the top of the chain of command. And perhaps, one day, they will conquer not only space... but the presidency of the company.
Galactic Cruise – A stellar management game with workers, ships, and interplanetary dreams
Galactic Cruise is a strategic board game for 1-4 players , with an estimated duration between 90 and 150 minutes and a high complexity (3.9/5) . Set in a science fiction future, it puts you in charge of a space cruise company where every choice you make affects the development of the market, technologies, and travel.
Use multi-action worker placement , manage multi-purpose cards, build modular routes, interact with a fluctuating market, and choose the right time to withdraw your personnel to Earth and replenish your funds.
With multiple victory conditions, common objectives, a modular board, and high replayability , this game is designed for those looking for a deep and engaging experience , whether playing solo or at a table.
We played it. It was a space CEO journey 🐸
Galactic Cruise isn't for everyone, 🐸 but those who love deep management games and games with dynamic economies and long-term planning will find it a galactic gem .
We were struck by the number of elegant decisions that intertwine: every action opens up new possibilities , and every opponent is also a potential ally… until the moment when they become your obstacle in your climb to power.
Kudos also to Ian O'Toole's graphics and the asymmetrical management of actions , which make each game a small management masterpiece to navigate carefully.
