Description
Outlive is a management/survival game in a post-apocalyptic universe in which nature has overcome its rights amongst the world of Men. In Outlive, players have six days (turns) to send heroes gathering resources during the day, while avoiding threats from other players and reinforce their settlements during the night, trying to recruit new survivors and adapt to the new world. The specifics: movements and resource gathering are compelled by your hero's strength.
You play six rounds (six days) that are divided between the day phase and the night phase. During the day phase, you move your four heroes of different strength on the board to collect resources with a mechanical movement innovative and interactive.
During the night phase, you manage your shelter, feed your survivors and recruit new ones, organize your survival, and improve your rooms and objects.
Only one clan can outlive this devastated world!

- Instructional demonstration with explicit setup and live-play examples.
Comparison games
none
Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- board-guided deterministic tracking — Each player uses a personal board with an arrow and a markers-based method to track which numbers could be on their stand, reinforcing logical progression.
- clue-based deduction: categorize — A player uses a chosen tile to place within their stand’s order to reveal relational information about neighboring tiles, without stating exact values.
- clue-based deduction: compare — A player asks whether the selected tile has the same number of dots as another tile; outcomes (yes/no) influence subsequent deductions and are made public.
- constant updating and marking — Players cross out impossible numbers on their boards and may erase and re-mark as new information becomes available.
- deduction — A player uses a chosen tile to place within their stand’s order to reveal relational information about neighboring tiles, without stating exact values.
- Hidden Information — Each player cannot see the values on their own five tiles and must deduce them from public clues and visible table tiles.
- public-information sharing — All clues and tile comparisons are visible to all players, ensuring the deduction process is transparent and collaborative.
- starting player rule — The youngest player starts; turns proceed clockwise around the table.
- turn-based reveal and deduction — On each turn, a tile is revealed from the supply, its value is announced, and players integrate the new information into their deductions.
- win condition: announced five — A player may publicly announce the five numbers in ascending order; if correct, they win immediately; if incorrect, they are eliminated from further play.
