Are you playing this amazing and fulfilled ancient game?


Truly the game is older than AD and has been mention in mythological documents as a record. Chowka Bara is an ancient Asian board game. It is played by 2 to 4 players on a board with a grid of 5x5 squares.

Like many such games there are regional variations. It is played by young and old, rich and poor in villages and towns. It is a poor cousin of another famous board game which originated in India. Unlike Chess, which is a pure game of skill, in Chowka Bara players throw dice whose outcome influences the game? Still strategy is important and can offset unfavorable outcome of dice. Quite often 'cowries' (a special kind of sea shells) substitute for dice. You can setup a game almost at no cast.
