Description

Istanbul is, without a doubt, one of the best board games to have ever been published. The long list of its awards and honors speaks for itself:

🏆 2015 Nederlandse Spellenprijs Best Expert Game Nominee
🏆 2014 Swiss Gamers Award Winner
🏆 2014 Meeples' Choice Nominee
🏆 2014 Kennerspiel des Jahres Winner
🏆 2014 International Gamers Award - General Strategy: Multi-player Nominee
🏆 2014 Hra roku Nominee
🏆 2014 Gouden Ludo Winner
🏆 2014 Golden Geek Board Game of the Year Nominee
🏆 2014 Golden Geek Best Strategy Board Game Nominee
🏆 2014 Golden Geek Best Family Board Game Nominee

In our 2018 digital version we have maintained all of the features that made Istanbul the fan favorite that it is, but also expanded upon it with a number of tools and features only available on the digital platform. We maintained the authentic board game feeling with the convenience you can expect from an electronic device.

So what is the game about?

Can you be the first merchant to collect a certain number of rubies?
✔️ Run, collect and trade goods across the bazaar
✔️ Take control over your assistants
✔️ Increase your wheelbarrow capacity
✔️ Acquire special abilities to increase the advantage over your competitors
✔️ Buy rubies or trade goods for them

In Istanbul, you lead a group of one merchant and his four assistants through 16 locations in the bazaar. In each such a location, you can carry out a specific action. The challenge, however, is that to take an action, you must move your merchant and an assistant there, then leave the assistant behind to handle all the details while you focus on larger matters. If you want to use that assistant again later, your merchant must return to that location to pick him up. Thus, you must plan ahead carefully to avoid being left with no assistants and thus unable to do anything…

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

User's Reivew

5 ★Bought immediately when I realised that the Mocha expansion is coming soon! So far, so good. The interface is clean, and there is the physicality of the original board game still intact. The AI seems to be strong as well, but I'll update my opinion as I get better at the game.
4 ★Very good digital implementation of a great board game. I like the interface decisions they made, to make the different options visually "work" on a phone. (Just pasting on the board game art/interface doesn't typically work well.) I do wish they had notifications enabled to let you know when it's your turn on an asynchronous game.
2 ★Can't register for online, not idea what's going on. I try and sing up with my email and it says email not available. Then try Facebook and it says it's not available.. how do I play online?
5 ★Good game. App functions well.
3 ★Really love this game but for some reason I cannot access the chat feature. There is no chat icon beside the notification icon on the right hand side as there should be. I am playing with someone and they keep sending me messages and I can't respond which is very frustrating. I have search and searched the settings and cannot find anywhere that it may be turned off or something. One time as a fluke I was able to access the global chat, but I could never get there again. Please help!
5 ★It's 2024 and I'm still loving this game. Great implementation of an already great board game that just flows smoothly. Everything is intuitive after a handful of plays. I would love to see some expansions in 2024, at least the two main ones (Coffee, Letters) from the physical "Big Box" edition. Any expansion would be an immediate purchase for me, and I'll bet a lot of others, given the number of 5-star reviews I see here!
3 ★Good translation of the boardgame. But appears you can't enable push notifications anymore, only email.
5 ★Fun Fact: The original working title for this game was Constantinople. You see... Istanbul was Constantinople Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople Been a long time gone, Constantinople Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night Every gal in Constantinople Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople So if you've a date in Constantinople She'll be waiting in Istanbul.
4 ★Great app implementation of one of my favorite games! However, can you all please update the app icon for Android/Google Pixel? It's just the tiny square icon surrounded by a white circle. The Istanbul icon doesn't fill the entire space. (To fix, I believe you need to upload an adaptive circle icon for Android that doesn't have anything go over the icon borders)
5 ★The digital version is as good as the physical version! It's amazing! I think it would have been better to have added the Letter and Coffee expansions. It would have made the game mare fun and heavier. I also think there should be a harder level AI. Even hard AI is easy. Nonetheless, this game is amazing and I highly recommend it.
