📖 About This Game

Zenix is an elegant abstract strategy game for 2 or 3 players, where the goal is to create the longest continuous chain of your hexagonal pieces on a rising, pyramid-like structure. Each turn, players place wooden hex logs onto a shared playing space that gradually builds upward. With limited real estate and ever-diminishing options, success demands clever positioning, spatial foresight, and the ability to cut off your opponents' paths while preserving your own. Quick to learn but deceptively deep, Zenix delivers tense, tactical play in a minimalist design.
