Found an Empire
Lead your dynasty to victory in the Warring States period of ancient China in the new digital adaptation of the acclaimed board game from Tigris & Euphrates designer Reiner Knizia.

Build & Conquer
Conflict is inevitable as your influence expands. Wage war upon neighboring states to slow their growth, and build spectacular pagodas to increase your own prestige. How will your reign be remembered?

Balance in All Things
Expand your civilization by placing tiles that represent the five facets of a thriving kingdom:
Governors - Keep the peace and quell revolts with a strong civic leadership!
Soldiers - Defend your growing empire -- or wage war upon your neighbors!
Farmers - Cultivate the banks of the Yellow and Yangtze rivers!
Traders - Acquire the resources your people need to prosper!
Artisans - Shape the culture of your dynasty and inspire your citizens!
Your legacy will be judged by your weakest category, so a wise leader must maintain harmony to achieve victory!

Praise for the physical board game:
"It's all very strategic as you build kingdoms and decide the best moment to attack. The game is very intense. It's delicious stress." - The Dice Tower

"Yellow & Yangtze is just awesome. Because you're trying to get a balance of all different colors, it's not just a tug-of-war back-and-forth. There's sort of this circular cycle of motion of different colors that people are going for, and it really makes the game super enjoyable. Overall, this game is amazing." - Game Boy Geek

"An exceptional thematic work. Yellow & Yangtze condenses many many years of historical upheaval into a gripping hour of satisfying hobby." - PlayerElimination

Great board game adapted well. It's still possible to find asynchronous games, but the community is small. My main issue is that the app doesn't ever send push notifications for my turn. Notifications are enabled for it on Android, but there don't seem to be any in-app settings to turn them on. There's no option for email notifications either, which would suffice. This makes keeping up with async games tough.

This game could easily be 5 stars if bugs are fixed. I use pass and play. no ability to choose CPU level. I lost two games to the app freezing on CPU turns and if I close the app and restart, it loses all memory of the game. Very frustrating. No ability to autosave progress. Traders stealing pagoda is buggy, thinking I want peasant riot. It is also difficult upon starting my turn to see what happened. There should be an option to replay or a record of past moves.

Instructions on "War" are poorly written. Confusing at best. Half the time I'm being thrown into war by a NPC with confusion what's going on. Could elaborate more on the losses and mechanics on War. The instruction for it is very incomplete I solved the problem above by reading the official board game rules in pdf. Search for it if you're experiencing the same problem like me. [Despite its shortcoming, the game aged well and I've update the rating to 5 stars to encourage more downloads]
