Baghchal

Baagchal, also known as Bagh Chal, is Nepal’s traditional game of tigers and goats. Four tigers hunt while twenty goats work together to surround them.

Choose your side and plan every move on the traditional 5×5 board. Tigers win by capturing five goats. Goats win by blocking every tiger.
