Galaxy Trucker Extended Edition

Galaxy Trucker: Extended Edition is the award-winning digital adaptation of Vlaada Chvatil's award-winning board game, and it ships with the Alien Technologies expansion already included. The job is simple in outline: build a spaceship from a jumble of tiles, fly it through a gauntlet of hazards, and finish with more cosmic credits than anyone else.

The catch is the ship. You assemble it yourself from mismatched parts, sewer pipes very much included, and then have to fly the result through meteor showers, pirate attacks and smuggler encounters, often after several of your engines or cannons have already been blown off. It is family-friendly and accessible to all ages, but the chaos is real.

The digital version adds plenty over the tabletop original: a dedicated campaign, exclusive special ship parts, local multiplayer on a single device, and online play that lets you run several games at once. You can play in frantic real-time or slow things down to a turn-based pace.
