Wagh Bakri is our Childhood Game. Some countries known as Wagh Chal and Tiger Goat.
Two-player board game that originates in India & Nepal. The game is asymmetric in that one player controls two tigers and the other player controls up to twenty goats. The tigers 'hunt' the goats while the goats attempt to block the tigers' movements.

At the start of the game all two or four tigers are placed on the two or four corners of the grid, facing the center. No goats are placed on the board during the initial setup.

The player controlling the goats moves first, by placing a goat onto a free intersection on the board. Tigers may move along the lines from one intersection to another. Once all of the goats have been placed on the board, goats must move in the same fashion as the tigers, one intersection to another. Moves alternate between players.

Tigers capture goats by jumping over them to an adjacent free position (as in checkers, although capturing is not obligatory in Bagh-Chal).

Rules for Tigers:

  1. They can move to an adjacent free position along the lines.

  2. They can capture goats during any move, and do not need to wait until all goats are placed.

  3. They can capture only one goat at a time.

  4. They can jump over a goat in any direction, as long as there is an open space for the tiger to complete its turn.

  5. A tiger cannot jump over another tiger.

The goats must move according to these rules:

  1. They must leave the board when captured.

  2. They cannot jump over tigers or other goats.

The game is over when either, the tigers capture five goats, or the goats have blocked the tigers from being able to move.
