Short description
You arrived in Istanbul with 3,000 lira. Grow from a stall to a shop, from the Grand Bazaar to the stock exchange. A farm in Beykoz, fishing at Salacak, and 101 Okey and backgammon in the coffeehouse are waiting.
Long description
İstanbul Çarşı is a shopkeeping, trading and business game set on a living map of Istanbul. You begin with day wages, open your first stall and grow it into a shop. The goal is clear: become the most respected merchant of the Grand Bazaar.
At the Grand Bazaar you buy goods and list them at your own price. On the Stock Exchange you trade shares, at the Bank you open term deposits, at the Real Estate Office you rent out flats and at the Jeweler you invest in gold. You run a farm in Beykoz, cast a line at Salacak and buy cars at the Car Market. In the Coffeehouse you play 101 Okey, Batak, Pişti and Backgammon; there is no betting at the tables.
The whole game is free to play. Titles, achievements and rankings cannot be bought. There are no fake countdowns.
