Ishtar - The Gardens of Babylon is the new grand strategy game from Bruno Cathala and Evan Singh.
The goddess Ishtar has heard your call: fountains have appeared in the heart of the desert! It's up to you to create the most magnificent of gardens!
Choose vegetation to grow, collect resources and control fountains. The title of Royal Gardener will reward the most visionary among you... or the most opportunistic!
Inspired by the game of Go, it opposes 2 to 4 players in the control of resources and plantations within a shared space.
In turn, each player places a vegetation tile in the extension of one of the fountains and collects the gems, more or less rare, scattered on the ground.
He can then use these resources to select a promising vegetation tile, plant trees or unlock Masteries.
Each choice made, each action carried out can considerably influence the final tally of victory points.
A game that guarantees optimal replayability, where privileging certain actions can lead to very different results.
