Istanbul - Das Würfelspiel

Welcome to the Grand Bazaar of Istanbul! In each round, traders fight for money and goods. Loyal assistants (represented in the game by the original dice) support them in their efforts. Players judiciously invest their income to improve their skills or to purchase much-needed rubies. With a bit of luck and the right strategy, the first player to collect a certain amount of rubies wins. In addition to winning, the player will be awarded the title of Merchant Guild Master.

The dice version of Istanbul retains the charm and drive of the parent game Istanbul, while at the same time translating the game mechanics into an easy to understand and nimble family game. This version is therefore suitable for younger players, and can also serve as a training game for players who want to practice strategy before moving on to the more complex parent game Istanbul.

The rules of the game are in English and German.

The game is language independent and is intended for 2-4 players aged 8 and up.
