Pachisi is a game played with a board and cowrie shells or dice, and it is similar to the North American game of Sorry!. Chaupar, on the other hand, is played with a board and four pieces, and it is also known as the "game of war." Both games have historical and cultural significance and are still enjoyed by many in India today.
