Galactic Infamy is a competitive, sci-fi themed board game in which players take on the roles of bounty hunters in search of the galaxy's most notorious crime lord.

Fight and capture bounties, then turn them in for rewards of Credits and Infamy. Purchase better equipment and skills to take on more difficult bounties and defend yourself from other players.

The first player to turn in any Crime Lord triggers the end of the game and the bounty hunter with the most Infamy wins!
