Chaturvimshati Koshtaka

Experience the Ancient Indian Game of Strategy and Wisdom

Introducing Chaturvimshati Koshtaka, an ancient Indian board game played for centuries that develops strategic thinking and mental fortitude. Meaning "Twenty Four Squares" in Sanskrit, this game was enjoyed by kings, monks, and commoners alike as both entertainment and enlightenment.

Chaturvimshati Koshtaka is played between two opponents on a 8x3 grid board with 24 squares. Each player has 8 pieces that can capture opponent's pieces by jumping over them. 

The origins of Chaturvimshati Koshtaka trace back to medieval India. It is described in the ancient Sanskrit text Kridakausalya.  The number 24 held deep spiritual significance in Hindu, Jain and Buddhist traditions. As a result, the 24-square format took on larger meaning.

In today's fast-paced digital era, this classic game provides welcome respite. Playing Chaturvimshati Koshtaka promotes focus, planning, and mental agility. It provides a personal challenge to stimulate your mind. Chaturvimshati Koshtaka is more than a game — it is a piece of living history. A gift that carries centuries of cultural wisdom into a modern home, and starts conversations that last long after the celebration ends.
