Description
In this edition the calls are not numbers but questions about Jainism, so a ticket fills up only when the player knows the answer. That small change turns a familiar party game into a revision session that nobody experiences as revision, and the quiet child who knows the most gets to shout Housie.
Good for: mixed groups of children and adults playing together, with questions that test the elders as much as the children. The game is in Hindi and needs one person to act as caller.
How families use it: play it at the end of a Paryushan evening, at a mahila mandal or sangh gathering, or on the last day of a pathshala term as a prize game. Prabhavna organisers order sets so each family takes one home. It is one of several themed editions; the full range is under Jain Tambola Housie Game.
It is very good game, with jain religious knowledge.
Should be published in gujarati also.
Excellent game
