Dadi

This strategy-alignment game that has been designed for children above five and adults is played by two players. Most of these games have their traces in different parts of the world. The primary aim of the game is to get as many points as possible by positioning three coins in a row.

Instructions

The two opposing players are given 9 coins each of two different colors. The players try to move them to get 3 coins in a row. Though, similar in movement to Noughts and Crosses, Dadi is far more complex than that in practicality.

The basic aim of a player is to make vertical or horizontal lines with three coins of one color. Every time this is achieved, one of the opponent’s coins is removed. The ultimate objective is to bring the opponent’s coins down to two, or to block all the opponent’s moves, thus rendering the opponent unable to play. When that final block occurs, the person creating the block is declared the winner.
