Chowka Bara Combo Set – 9 & 11 House Traditional Indian Board Games with Channapatna Pawns

Double the Fun with the Chowka Bara 9 & 11 House Combo Set!

Take your game nights to the next level with Roll the Dice’s Chowka Bara Combo Set, featuring two beautifully crafted game mats – one with 9 houses and the other with 11 houses. Whether you’re playing in a small group or a large gathering, this combo set gives you the flexibility to choose your challenge.

Each mat is:

• Made from high-quality, durable fabric
• Lightweight and easy to roll up and store
• Ideal for home play or travel

Also included are handcrafted pawns from Channapatna, the iconic town in Karnataka known for its traditional wooden toys and lacquer art.

🎲 What is Chowka Bara?

Chowka Bara, also known as Ashta Chamma, is a traditional Indian board game that combines luck and strategy. Players roll cowrie shells (kavade) to decide how far their pawns can move. It’s perfect for building patience, decision-making, and critical thinking skills—while sharing laughs with friends and family.

✨ Exciting South Karnataka Game Phrases:

Make your game more fun and competitive with these traditional calls:

• “itta-mane-chith” – Call this out to lock an opponent’s move after they place their pawn.
• “muttidd-kai-chith” – Used when a pawn is lifted, forcing the player to move that specific piece.
• “moor naak shyam / moor ent shyam” – A fun twist when players roll multiple 4s or 8s in a row!

🎁 Why This Set Stands Out:

• Includes two game mats for varied play (9 and 11 house versions)
• Comes with Channapatna handcrafted pawns
• Encourages family bonding, cultural appreciation, and strategic thinking
• Great for ages 4 and up
