  History of Goats and Tigers

Goats and Tigers go by many names: Aadu Puli aatam in Tamil, Puli-Meka in Telugu, Adu-Huli in Kannada and Bagh Chal in Nepali. The origin of this game is lost in the echelons of time but there is some evidence that this genre of gameplay existed in many different cultures. This shows that asymmetric-strategy games have a common Human Heritage and can be counted among the greatest classic strategy games like Chess. The game of Fox and Geese which is a variation of an older Viking game known as Hala-tafl is also a asymmetric strategic game with another history.

In the Indian landscape there is strong evidence of Goats and Tigers existing right from the time of great Empires. Variations of the game have been found in ancient temples across South India. This shows that this game has a folk origin with popular appeal unlike chess which had its origin in Royal courts. The Portuguese in India also seemed to enjoy this game! The game was found etched in a Portuguese fort and it seemed to be popular among the troops. Goats and Tigers is still enjoyed all over the Sub-Continent. This project attempts to recreate this game which began with Humans first drawing the board in the sand and dirt of the Indian subcontinent to a mobile platform. We envision that this would add to the rich global future that awaits us!
