Fun, quick and easy to learn!

We love an easy game. Roll the dice and choose your actions based on what you roll. We like Istanbul a lot, but sometimes we need something that doesn't take much time to set up or play. And while you can play without much strategy, making it something we can play with young grandkids (who have gaming experience), you can use strategy.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • I'll add later

Fun game for the whole family

Fun, fast and compact game to play with friends. Well-made game elements. Easy to learn and understand mechanics. Istanbul was one of the first games I actually bought but didn't play that much anymore. I would say the game is worth the money, but the game "gets old" after a while, especially when playing with the same group of people.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Negative is available

Funny dice game, suitable for games and accessories

Great simple dice game. Lots of interesting options and very well done. Even if you have never played in Istanbul, there is no reason not to try it. If you are a fan of dice games, you will love it. When it is your turn, you roll the dice and try to reach the goals with the fallen resources. Maps also provide additional help along the way. Overall, it's fun, easy to teach, and easy to get started.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • High price

Like Istanbul, but fast.

If you like the Istanbul board game, you will (probably) like this version of the dice game. The core mechanics of the game are the same; Acquire resources or money to trade or buy rubies. I like Istanbul, but this game isn't easy to set up (and we're using a coffee addon that makes it longer) and it's quite a long game, even with few players, so it's a good alternative if you fancy it have to play the same game but only 20 minutes.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Modern

A fun, fast and correct game when time can be limited.

Plays fast, makes interesting dice decisions, collects bonuses and scores. It comes late to the table and we crave a good game that isn't too tiring either. Once the rubies grab it, it becomes a race. But that doesn't spoil the fun. Easy to get to the desk and often got there. This isn't the kind of game to focus your game night on, but sometimes you just don't have all night to play!

Pros
  • The best in his niche
Cons
  • Negative impression

Superb version of Istanbul in Cubes

I was really looking forward to this game and my first playthrough didn't disappoint. It's a slightly shorter, slightly easier to learn dice game with the same theme as the Istanbul board game. The dice game still leaves the player with many options and decision points as they work out their strategy to loot more gems than their opponents. Of course, you don't have to play the board game to enjoy the dice game, but you'll appreciate how well the translation turned out if you play both games.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Repair

Ruby Race is fast and fun

If you want to throw something for half an hour, something nice and easy to play, you can do worse than Istanbul: The Dice Game. If your group can roll the dice and draw cards, you're done. It takes 5 minutes to learn the rules and the components are high quality with beautiful graphics. If depth is what you're looking for, then honestly there's not much to say here, and the luck factor can be significant if that bothers you. Even though I haven't played Istanbul, the game this one is based on,

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure
