About the Game

Rebuild the City of Zite Across the Pages

Create a city one Page at a time in this rogue-like deckbuilding city builder. Each run begins with a small collection of cards and an empty Page. Expand carefully, discover powerful synergies between locations, and earn Zite to survive the year. Hold your Page together through Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter to complete a run.

A Living Journal

Zite exists entirely within the Pages of a hand-crafted journal. Roads are drawn directly across the Page to shape your expansion, locations unfold like sketches brought to life, and the Blite consumes the Page itself as shadow spreads across the journal.

Build Powerful Synergies

Discover combinations of locations and effects to create thriving cities capable of surviving harsh seasons. Adapt your strategy every run as new cards, events, and challenges emerge.
