Langur Burja

2–14 players · 10 min · 8+

Langur Burja, a dice game that keeps you on your toes, is popularly played across Nepal especially during the span of Dashain and Tihar. This gripping game, in its ethos, is very similar to the dice game Crown and Anchor played by British sailors, or Chuck-A-Luck played in America. This game comes with six dice and six boards with two sides. Each die has six faces with different symbols: Jhanda (flag), Burja (crown), Itta (diamond), Paan (heart), Surath (spade), and Chidi (club).

The game is played between a banker, who rolls the dice, and the players, who place their bets on one or more symbols on the board. The players will only win if the symbols they placed their bet on show up on the faces of the dice rolled.
