Store description excerpt
Anthi Chanda is the traditional Indian board game your family has played for generations — the 5×5 cowrie shell race known across India as Chowka Bhara, Chowka Bara, Ashta Chamma, Ashta Kashte, Daayam and Thaayam. Now on your phone, beautifully made, and ready whenever you are. No dice here. You toss four cowrie shells and count the mouths that land face up. Four pawns each, 2 to 4 players, one centre square to reach. Learn it in a single game, argue about it for years. 🐚 THE COWRIE THROW Chanda — all four mouths up — moves you 4 and gives you another throw. Anthi — all four face down — moves you a mighty 8, and throws again. Everything else moves you 1, 2 or 3. Luck deals the throw. Skill decides the pawn. ⚔️ CUT YOUR OPPONENT Land exactly on an opponent's pawn and it goes all the way back to the start. Nothing in this game feels better. But mind the home squares and the centre — pawns resting there can never be cut. 🎯 REACH THE CENTRE Race the outer ring, then turn inward. You have to land on the centre exactly, so the last few steps are the hardest of the game. Circle the inner ring and wait for the throw you need. 🎮 GAME MODES • Pass & Play — 2 to 4 players on a single phone. The classic way, no second device needed. • VS Computer — practise against computer opponents that actually try to cut you. • Team Battle — 2 vs 2. Your pawns, your partner's pawns, one shared victory. 📶 PLAYS OFFLINE Every game runs on your device. No internet needed while you play — made for flights, trains, long queues and patchy signal. You sign in with Google once, so your coins and your profile stay safe. 🪙 COINS, TASKS AND SURPRISES Collect free coins every day, finish daily tasks, open mystery boxes, and spend what you collect in the shop. Keep an eye on your record in your profile, and see where you stand on the leaderboard. ✨ BUILT WITH CARE Clean, colourful boards. Cowries that tumble and settle. Pawns that move square by square, the way they do on a real board. Sound and vibration you can switch off whenever you like. Whether you call it Anthi Chanda, Chowka Bhara, Ashta Chamma, Ashta Kashte, Daayam or Thaayam — this is the game from your grandmother's courtyard, made for the phone in your hand. Free to play. Made in India by Saathi Games.
