How It Plays

Pick-up and Deliver

You pick up goods from one location and deliver them to another for rewards — efficient routes mean big payoffs.

Set Collection

You're gathering matching groups of cards or tokens to score points — the more complete your sets, the better you do.

Trading

You can swap resources or cards with other players — making clever trades can give you a serious edge.

About This Game

Isfahan is a small, free expansion for the Arabian commerce game Samarkand. Its major effect is to allow the demand for the game's commodities to travel around the board rather than be fixed at one city.
