Enhance the base game of Galileo Galilei by adding the new playable character, Edmond Halley. Utilize his unique comet ability to make the advanced game mode even more dynamic and challenging!

Halley has three personal comet spaces and one special comet tile. The comet spaces are:

  • Give a lecturer and gain one quadrant
  • Increase two of your dice by 3
  • Gain 7 points

Halley’s Comet has two attributes:
It has value 2 on the starting side and value 3 on the flipped side. You use it the same way as regular comets while observing.
When you use it for the second time you may place it on your personal comet spaces or on the home board.

When you trigger a “spot a comet” action, you may use this comet instead of one on your player board. This allows you to use this comet multiple times. Once you take it from a comet space it was placed on, the reward on it becomes available again. This applies even for your personal comet pages.

Madison T. ★★★★★

I grabbed this promo hoping it would spice up our game nights, and Halley's comet ability totally delivers. It makes the advanced mode way more unpredictable, and my group has already asked to play him three times in a row.

Penelope U. ★★★★★

I was hesitant about dropping in a promo character mid-campaign, but Halley's comet ability adds just the right tension to the advanced mode without feeling overpowered. The turns where I set up his skyward path and then reap the reward are genuinely more dynamic than the base game.

Eli ★★★★☆

The comet ability really shakes up the advanced mode—it forces you to rethink your scoring priorities every turn. Took me a couple games to get the hang of Halley's timing, but once it clicks, the extra challenge feels worth it.
