This game, played with five small stones, is known as "chabcha" in some eastern areas of Bhutan, while in other areas it also called "sho." In Bumthang it is called “aku,” and Lhotsampas called it “ekdupi.” Its origins are unknown. Often played by women and children for leisure, it requires a minimum of two players. The players sit on the ground, facing each other. In this video, Tenzin Wangmo and her friends from Maan Geog play outside their house.
