Description

In Silencio, you and your teammates form a silent squad, working together to discard as many cards as possible without speaking to each other. Each player starts with a hand of cards from four suits, and the goal is to play cards in ascending order, but with a twist - if a card is the direct successor of the previous one, you'll suffer a penalty. On the other hand, if it's not a direct successor, you can choose to take a bonus, such as ignoring the next penalty or making a card available for anyone to play. With the help of five shrines, each offering a unique bonus, you can strategically flip them to aid your team. The game is easy to learn, and with playtime ranging from 0 to 15 minutes, you can quickly dive into the world of Silencio. Designed by César Gómez Bernardino, this cooperative card game challenges you to communicate without speaking, making it a fun and exciting experience for 2 to 4 players.
