Once the ships are launched, players will encounter dangerous situations, while vying for financial opportunities—each hoping to gain the most valuable cargo and finish with as much of their ship still intact as possible. Of course, that's easier said than done, since many hazards will comically send pieces of your ship, your cargo, and your crew hurling into the depths of space. The goal is to have the most credits at the end of the game. Players earn credits by delivering goods, defeating pirates, having the best looking ship, and reaching their destination before the others. ******************** Links: Head over to the Tabletop Bellhop blog where you'll find more tabletop gaming content, including game and game night advice, reviews, and more: https://tabletopbellhop.com Check out our Galaxy Trucker 2021 Unboxing Video here on YouTube, https://youtu.be/p3a5INSauVU Read our Galaxy Trucker second edition review on the blog, https://tabletopbellhop.com/game-reviews/galaxy-trucker-2021/ Pickup your own copy of this new edition of Galaxy Trucker (affiliate links) US: https://amzn.to/3GSqpcx Canada: https://amzn.to/33m1lMv UK: https://amzn.to/3rqoh5d ******************** Sign up for our newsletter to get a heads up on all of the content we release each week: https://newsletter.tabletopbellhop.com Find us all over the web: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tabletopbellhop/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/tabletopbellhop Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tabletopbellhop/ Twitch: https://twitch.tv/tabletopbellhop
