This is a how-to-play video of the boardgame "Chettinad Duet" by XOtoXO Games.
Chettinad Duet is a family boardgame inspired by the Chettinadu region of Tamil Nadu for 2 players. Chettinad Duet has a total of two games.
This video covers the first game - called "Chessinad". Chessinad can be played in an easy mode, which is suitable for beginners, and this video covers the easier version.
In this game, players play a tug-of-war, trying to pull a wooden horse to their side of the board. Players do this, by placing tiles on the board, and forming patterns with the tiles. Each pattern formed, allows the player to pull their horse one spot towards their side. If a player's horse reaches the "golden circle" on their side at any instant, the game ends immediately and that player wins. If this doesn't happen, then the game ends when the board is filled with tiles, and the player who has the horse on their side wins. If the horse remains in the center at the end of the game, it ends in a draw.
This game requires the playing board with the face Chessinad-1, 30 tiles, and one horse from the box. Game play lasts about 15-20 minutes.
