In the 16th century, astronomers like Tycho Brahe studied the Moon’s movements and phases using precise measurements and simple instruments. Galileo Galilei’s telescope revealed craters and mountains on the Moon, thereby disproving the ancient hypothesis of its perfect smoothness. These observations changed our understanding of the Moon and of the entire universe.

This expansion for Galileo Galilei introduces the Moon as a new object of observation, adding a new scoring mechanic to explore. Discover four new playable characters, each bringing unique abilities. Additionally, powerful inquisitors enter the game, offering great rewards to those who can successfully persuade them. Map the Moon together and enhance your strategic possibilities!

Claire ★★★★★

The way it walks through Galileo's actual telescope findings, craters and all, made the 16th-century moon debates finally click for me. I've read plenty of dry astronomy history, but this one kept me turning pages just to see how each observation built on Tycho Brahe's earlier measurements.

Jason ★★★★★

Galileo's telescope observations finally made sense to me after reading how the craters and mountains were revealed. It's a short book but the section on his instruments and measurements is genuinely fascinating.

Isabella O. ★★★★★

The chapter on Tycho Brahe’s meticulous measurements really made me appreciate how much could be achieved without modern tech, and the section on Galileo’s first lunar observations gave me chills. It’s a slim read but packs in enough detail to satisfy a curious mind.
