## Description

The porch where South India played - now in your pocket.<br><br>Thinnai Games brings together three traditional South Indian games, rebuilt<br>from scratch and free to play.<br><br>🐯 HERD &amp; HUNTER - Aadu Puli Aattam<br>Three tigers hunt. Fifteen goats stand together. Place your herd across the<br>23-point lattice, then trap every tiger - or leap in and thin the herd before<br>they close ranks. The tiger-and-goat strategy board game played on porches<br>across Tamil Nadu for generations. Play against a friend, or against an AI<br>opponent at three difficulty levels.<br><br>🎲 DHAYAM<br>Roll the dhayakattai - the four-sided sticks the game is named for - and walk<br>your pieces the long way round a four-armed board. Land on a rival and they<br>start again; bring every piece home to the centre first and you win. Play<br>solo against bots, with friends, or as two teams of partners sharing a side.<br><br>♛ CATCH THE THIEF - Raja Rani<br>Everyone draws a hidden role - King, Queen, Minister, Police, Thief - and the<br>Police has to work out who took the Thief. Guess wrong and the Thief walks<br>off with your points. A pass-and-play party card game built for one phone<br>passed hand to hand - perfect for a group in one room. Bilingual: English and Tamil.<br><br>Why Thinnai Games:<br>• Completely free, with no ads or in-app purchases<br>• No account or sign-up needed<br>• No analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs of any kind<br>• Play solo against AI or pass-and-play with family and friends<br><br>These are the games played on the thinnai - the raised porch at the front of<br>a South Indian home - where neighbours and family gathered to play for<br>generations. Pick a game and start.
