Ashta Chamma is a traditional Indian board game, often played in rural areas. It is similar to the game of Ludo and involves two to four players. The game is played on a cross-shaped board with a set of pawns for each player. The objective is to move all your pawns from the starting point to the home area based on the roll of a die. The name "Ashta Chamma" translates to "eight" and "chess," referring to the eight squares on the board. Players take turns rolling the die and moving their pawns accordingly, while also trying to capture opponents' pawns. The game combines strategy and luck, making it enjoyable for all ages.
