## Overview

IELLO Ishtar: Gardens of Babylon is a 2-4 player strategic board game designed by award-winning Bruno Cathala. Players compete to transform a desert into the iconic Hanging Gardens by planting flowers, collecting gems, and purchasing upgrades. With a 45-minute playtime and high replayability, it offers dynamic, tactical gameplay suitable for ages 14 and up, featuring quality components and engaging mechanics that ensure no two games are the same.

## Description

From the award-winning designer Bruno Cathala, Ishtar is a game in which you play the role of a gardener aiming to transform the dry desert into the Lost Hanging Gardens of Babylon. To accomplish your mission, you will have to plant flowers, which, if you place them well, can help you gather precious gems and activate actions. Whether to buy Trees (which will block the link between two Flower spots, as well as earning you points) or to purchase upgrades (such as getting two more points per Tree card at the end of the game), collecting gems will be a crucial part of the game. Get them before your opponents, recruit apprentices, send them to earn points in the copses of flowers you have created, block others and think carefully of the upgrades to purchase if you want to become the best gardener at the end of the game!

Review: Worth the buy - This game is great fun, one of Cathala’s best. Additionally, the components are good quality.
Review: El juego es bonito, entretenido. Con buenos componentes y un gran inserto que conserva todo en su lugar. Pienso que puede ser un juego familiar, que sirve de entrada para personas que no conocen los juegos de mesa modernos.
