Zenith is an intense, tactical game for two players or for four players in teams. Players struggle for control of the Solar System. Power play, diplomacy, technological development every strategy can be used to achieve victory. Each player seeks to take power over five zones using a tug-of-war system. To do this, on their turn, they must play a card and choose whether to: Use it to gain influence on a planet (and apply some effects), Advance in one of the three technology trees, or Take the Leadership, then get resources and more cards than their opponent. With its ever-changing and tense gameplay, Zenith offers a game that's both quick to understand and has great strategic depth.

Players will struggle to gain Influence on the 5 planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and Jupiter. This Influence is represented by discs in different colors.

In Zenith, there are 3 victory conditions:

• Absolute victory: Gain 3 Influence discs from the same planet.
• Democratic victory: Gain 4 Influence discs from strictly different planets.
• Popular victory: Gain 5 Influence discs (from any planets).

The game ends immediately as soon as one player meets 1 of these three conditions.
