This game is played by people of various ages, but only by men. The equipment needed is a square board and two sets of three game pieces, one for each player. Small pebbles of different sizes and colours are used as pieces. The square board is drawn on the floor with the help of a piece of charcoal.
Tikda is a blockade game. Players take alternate turns. The pieces are placed first in corners but not in a row. The players try to position their pieces in a row or sequences. Simultaneously each player erects a blockade in such a way that his opponent cannot place his pieces in a row. The player who becomes successful in placing his pieces in a row wins the set. One round consists of five sets. The winner of the maximum number of sets wins the round. This game is very popular among the younger boys, and is also useful for mental development. - Rules (dcterms:instructionalMethod)
