Bagh Chal

Bagh Chal (‘Tiger game’) is an ancient 2-player abstract strategy game, native to the country of Nepal. One player controls a herd of 20 goats, the other, a pack of 4 tigers. Goats aim to trap all tigers, while tigers try to capture 5 goats.

We discovered Bagh Chal in 2019 when we spent a couple of days in Kathmandu. Recently we got to know that this ancient game is slowly being forgotten. That’s why, we decided to give this game a fresh new look and put it in a travel-friendly pouch to make it appealing to younger generations.
