Zilence

The zombie apocalypse has arrived and the only good news is you are still breathing! You are one of a small band of survivors hunkered down in the center of the city, planning your brave escape past hordes of lumbering undead. Time is running out—can you quickly and silently gather the supplies necessary for survival as you plan your route through the labyrinthine streets? The clock starts ticking…NOW!

In Zilence, two to four players will examine twelve potential escape routes that wind through the city, but must stay calm and focused because they will only have 20 seconds to identify the best path to freedom that includes items critical for survival.

At the start of each round, each player will draw cards that represent three items they have been asked to locate. Once everyone is ready, a marker is revealed that identifies which three of the twelve possible paths out of the city are active, and it also triggers the start of the 20-second timer! Everyone playing must quickly scan the paths using only their eyes, trying to scavenge as many of their wanted items as possible. Once the timer runs out, all players secretly commit to one of the three paths, then simultaneously reveal their choices.

One by one, each of the three paths is traced to see what supplies were located, resulting in new items for anyone who was successful. Lastly, players prepare for the next round by changing the city board layout, revealing a new set of paths to explore. Whoever can collect all 12 of their items first, will win!
