Zenith is a fast, punchy sci-fi tug-of-war that packs a lot of tension into about 30 minutes. The rules are easy to grasp, but the decisions matter, since every move can swing control of a planet or open a new path to victory. It really shines at two players, but works well up to four. Quick to teach, tense to play, and the kind of game that makes you say “one more round” even after you lose.
