Parcheesi

At the table, four color sets race from the corner homes toward the house in the middle. In Parcheesi, each side uses four tokens on a cross-shaped board with marked spaces, and the match ends when one player gets the full set home before the rest. Local play fits a group of relatives or friends beside the same board. Solo rounds add computer rivals, with one, two, or three bots taking the empty seats.

How to play?

Roll two dice on your move, then advance tokens by the numbers shown. Matching numbers grants another roll. Pull a token out from home without waiting for a six. Watch pieces already on the path, because an opponent can send them back home. Long moves help cover more spaces. Reach the center house with all four tokens before another color finishes first.
