Achi (300)

ByMichail

Achi is a two-player abstract strategy game originating from Ghana, also known as tapatan. It is related to tic-tac-toe and other games like three men’s morris, Nine Holes, Tant Fant, Shisima, and Dara, as pieces are moved on the board to create the 3-in-a-row. Achi is an alignment game, and there are two versions of the game: one with four pieces per player and another with three pieces per player, which makes it identical to three men’s morris.The game is popular and significant because it is a traditional board game from Ghana, often played by children using pebbles as pieces. Achi is part of a family of board games played throughout Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia, all involving a grid of holes and pieces that are piled into the holes in varying quantities.
