About This Game
Daadi (దాడి ఆట), also celebrated as Navakankari, is the legendary ancient strategy board game of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Played across centuries on village verandas (అరుగులు) and temple courtyards with polished stone coins and cowrie shells, players position 9 tactical counters across 24 junction points. Aligning 3 pieces in a row declares "DAADI!" to capture opponent coins. Master the placement, strategic sliding, and mid-air "flying" (ఎగురుడు) phases against intelligent AI or in local 2-player pass & play!
