1. Games on boards with 8 or 10 rows. This is thought to refer to ashtapada and dasapada respectively; however, later Sinhala commentaries refer to these boards also being used with games involving dice. 2
2. The same games played on imaginary boards. Akasam astapadam was an ashtapada variant played with no board, literally "astapadam played in the sky". A correspondent in the American Chess Bulletin identifies this as likely the earliest literary mention of a blindfold chess variant. 5]
3. Games of marking diagrams on the floor such that the player can only walk on certain places. This is described in the Vinaya Pitaka as
"having drawn a circle with various lines on the ground, there they play avoiding the line to be avoided". Rhys Davids suggests that it may refer to parihara-patham, a form of hop-scotch.
4. Games where players either remove pieces from a pile or add pieces to it, with the loser being the one who causes the heap to shake (similar to the modern game pick-up sticks).
5. Games of throwing dice. 6. Dipping the hand with the fingers stretched out in lac, or red dye, or flour-water, and striking the wet hand on the ground or on a wall, calling out "What shall it be?" and showing the form required— elephants, horses, etc..
7. Ball games.
8. Blowing through a pat-kulal, a toy pipe made of leaves.
9. Ploughing with a toy plough.
10. Playing with toy windmills made from palm leaves.
11. Playing with toy measures made from palm leaves.
12. Playing with toy carts.
13. Playing with toy bows.
14. Guessing at letters traced with the finger in the air or on a friend's back. (letters in the Brahmi script)
15. Guessing a friend's thoughts.
16. Imitating deformities.

ominous painting room ‘i love to. one here and look at the ominous paintings’ a sort of boardgame grid with little guys on it saying things like ‘i’m out of mana’ and ‘it’s a great way to be confused with friends’ little mouse orchestra in a box of a room saying ‘quiet!! we’re rehearsing!’ a sort of allegorical moral painting made of symbols and corporate and religious images. a little guys saying ‘radical! i feel renewed moral purpose’

have you played TEN BEAUTIFUL POSTCARDS? the game that made me realise ‘wait- maybe I could make a game’ it expresses so much without challenge or even collision

itch comment ‘ yea....delete your game dude...and get some serious skills in making video games...’ itch comment ‘Sobbing, crying, because I will never in my life com up with something half as good as this.
This is peak in its purest form.’

book 2120 on a table 2 pages of a 1st person graphic novel, with page numbers attached to different directions 2 pages of a 1st person graphic novel, with page numbers attached to different directions

2120 by George Wylesol

A first-person graphic novel that plays like a point and click escape room game, highly recommend if you like Type Help and its ilk. feels like youre exploring a space and solving puzzles. i would play / read hundreds of these
