Happy Republic Day India!

We hope you have time on your hands today, as we want to get you ready to play games. National holidays have always been days for spending quality time among families. This year, let’s make it fun with games that SHUFFLE feels represent India in different facets.

Traditions

India has always had great respect for the traditional and cultural values that have been passed from the old times that persist if not thrive with evolution. Did you know that India also has a great collection of traditional games?

Gemu games have kept several of these games alive and they come in beautiful wooden forms and range from simple to complicated unbeatably. These include Pallanguzhi, Goli, Kattam Vilayattu, Cube and more…

History

India’s history is full of kingly riches and inter-kingdoms politics and conflicts even before the subjugation by the British. Yudhbhoomi is a board game that has the players in a mental simulation of great battles as they strategize to win.

The Indus civilisation is the oldest documented source of planned living. In Indus, plan your own cities while making contingency plans for natural disasters that may occur.

Festivals

India is known throughout the world for its secular policies and the scale of celebrations of the festivals of every religion and the country itself. Diwali, Holi, Eid, Christmas, Pongal, Durga Puja, Independence Day and Republic Day, all have a home.

Ingenious games have awesome festival-themed puzzles that also have mini-activities for the player to solve.

Cricket

Cricket has always been a religion in itself. Every IPL, ODI, T20 and World Cup is celebrated with a zeal that can unite the country or also be a point of conflict. With Dream Team, play fantasy cricket on a board game and collect all your favourite players and see if you win.

Travel

India is a BIG country. There might be very few people who have seen all of it with their own eyes. Thankfully, there are several tabletop games that bring the experience of travelling or seeing new places in India.

Parikrama is a big game in a compact box, where the players travel through different terrains and score points by completing their maps. Namma Bangaluru is a city-building game based on, you guessed it- Bangalore. Jaipur is a 2-player game where the player competes to be the top merchant of the kingdom of Jaipur.

Food

Indian spices are always in the news. This makes Indian food a speciality in itself, but modernisation is also here with an Indian twist. We have Indianized every international cuisine, be it Chinese or Italian. So, why don’t you make your own pizza with Top Up Your Pizza or a delicious and healthy Point Salad?

Tea is the unofficial national drink of India. You will find several types of it across the country and even in a single household. Why don’t you try becoming a tea seller in Chai Garam and experience the work of tea sellers who are still serving great chai in India?

Neighbours

India has a society that is not happy with its own business. There is always someone with a taunt, unwanted advice, perv gaze, judgemental thoughts and more. Yeah, it is not something to be proud of…

But you can certainly play Angry Indians to bash these people, even if it is only in a game. Get it now!

Bollywood

India is a land of many art forms. Dancing, singing, and paintings all have different forms, even within themselves. All these are kept alive by the artists and presented throughout the world. A small part of these has assimilated with the movie industry in India, especially through our songs.

Musically and Filmie by Gnaan Ka Pitaara are two games that test your movie and music trivia if not your voice itself.
