Istanbul: Mocha & Baksheesh

Players run a merchant operation in a bustling Ottoman bazaar, buying and selling goods and using assistants to optimize movement and transactions. This expansion adds coffee as a new commodity, introduces four new location tiles that provide fresh actions and interactions, and offers additional ways to earn coveted rubies through tavern guests and guild hall benefits. Players balance resource management, route planning, and subtle player interaction as they deploy assistants, bribe NPCs, and fulfill orders to score points.
