Sultan's Decree

Rule an Empire. Reshape a Century.

Sultan's Decree is a card-based strategy game that puts you in control of the Ottoman Empire across 623 years of history. From the dynasty's founding in 1299 to the birth of the Turkish Republic in 1922, every swipe of your finger determines the fate of millions. Balance the demands of four powerful factions -- the Ulema (religion), the Reaya (people), the Military (janissaries), and the Treasury (wealth) -- as you guide 36 sultans through an era of constant change.A Legacy That Never Resets

Unlike other strategy games, your choices don't disappear when an era ends. The flags you raise or lower persist across centuries. Decisions made by an early sultan will ripple forward, shaping the challenges and opportunities faced by rulers hundreds of years later. This is history as a living system -- one where every action has consequences that echo through the ages.Gameplay at Your Fingertips

The core mechanic is elegantly simple: swipe left or right on 500 hand-crafted cards to issue decrees that affect your four faction meters. Each decision strengthens one faction while weakening another. Will you appease the Ulema and risk angering the people? Invest in the military and watch your treasury dwindle? Every turn presents new moral dilemmas drawn from real historical events and themes.Features
