This article is about the game. For the episodes on Marielda's quiet year, see The City of Light Part 1 and Part 2.
The Quiet Year is a game that was played at the start of Marielda as a means of building the setting for the rest of the season to follow. It was designed by Avery Alder.Template:Spoiler
The Quiet Year is a map game. You define the struggles of a community living after the collapse of civilization, and attempt to build something good within their quiet year. Every decision and every action is set against a backdrop of dwindling time and rising concern.
The game is played using a deck of cards – each of the 52 cards corresponds to a week during the quiet year. Each card triggers certain events – bringing bad news, good omens, project delays and sudden changes in luck. At the end of the quiet year, the Frost Shepherds will come, ending the game.
