The rules, step by step
Setup
To set up Celestia, arrange the floating world tiles in order from nearest to furthest, placing the airship on the first world. Shuffle all equipment and turbo cards together into a single deck, then deal six cards to each player in a four-player game or eight cards for two to three players. Give the dice to the starting player, who begins as the captain.
Objective
The objective of Celestia is to travel as far as possible on an airship, exploring mythical floating worlds and collecting valuable treasure cards to accumulate at least 50 points and win the game.
On your turn
During a turn, the captain rolls a specific number of dice based on the destination world to determine the dangers ahead. All passengers on board then decide whether to stay on the ship or disembark to claim treasure from the current world. The captain must discard matching equipment cards from their hand to overcome each rolled danger. If the captain succeeds, the ship advances to the next world and the captaincy moves to the next player. If the captain fails, the ship crashes, all remaining passengers lose their chance at treasure, and the round ends.
Scoring
Scoring happens when players successfully disembark at a floating world and draw a treasure card from that world's pile, accumulating points toward the 50-point winning threshold.
Game end
The game ends immediately after any round where at least one player has amassed 50 or more points. If multiple players reach this threshold in the same round, the player with the highest total score wins.
Tips
Players can use special turbo cards to ignore single dice symbols and jetpack cards to safely descend and claim treasures even when the airship crashes.
