Read the full game description
Point Galaxy expands the approachable drafting idea behind Point Salad and Point City into a layered space puzzle. A central market displays six double-sided cards. On each turn, take any two cards and decide which side of each belongs in your galaxy. Planet sides join solar systems in ascending numerical order around a sun; space sides supply suns, moons, asteroids, wormholes, rockets, and research projects that open different scoring routes. Cards overlap in tidy columns, so a large tableau grows from a small footprint while every placement can support several objectives. Rocket symbols race for a limited supply of bonus tokens, and research cards reward particular arrangements or collections. After thirteen turns per player, completed systems and every visible feature are scored. With 140 unique double-sided cards, changing markets, and multiple scoring layers, the rules remain quick enough for families while the placement decisions reward efficient sequencing. A dedicated solo mode turns the same market puzzle into a personal score challenge.
