What is Istanbul: Digital Edition?

This digital board game sets a race for rubies in Istanbul's bazaar. In each match, you move a merchant and four assistants among 16 locations to collect and trade goods or buy rubies. Taking an action leaves an assistant behind, so you must plan when to return and pick them up.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy short matches that reward careful decisions
  • +you want to play against AI or friends online

Not for you if...

  • −you prefer real-time action to turn-based planning
  • −you dislike managing assistants across a board
