Egara Guti (2024)

ByMichail

Egara-guti

Egara-guti is a two-player abstract strategy game from India, specifically from Central Provinces, and it was described by H.J.R. Murray in A History of Board-Games Other Than Chess (1952).

Why is Egara-guti Popular?

Egara-guti is a significant game because it is part of a category of games called Indian War-games, which have a common feature of having all the pieces laid out on the grid patterned board in the beginning, with only one vacant point in the center. This forces the first move to be played on the central point, and captured by the other player’s piece.
