Chai Dhaba
3–5 players · 40 min · 14+
Chai Dhaba is a fast paced, desi strategy card game where players run their roadside tea cafe (Quetta Hotel) and compete to become the most successful chai spot in town.
It embodies the real life contexts of desi street culture and hustle, all of course with a lot of humour.
The players will have to carefully play their hands, managing their tea cafe (Dhaba), installing new attractions for customers, sabotaging their competitors, and dealing with the day to day complications that arise with running a business in the city.
So serve parathas, hire new waiters, spread chaos or bribe a police officer, after all, only the Dhaba with the most customers will reign supreme.
