Exploring India’s forgotten card games
Something caught my eye at a flea market recently—a handmade set of round cards with vibrant artwork. The vendor didn’t know much, just said it was “some old Indian game.” Now it’s stuck in my head, and I can’t stop wondering about it. I’ve played rummy and bridge, but this seems like something deeper, maybe cultural or historical. Has anyone here looked into older Indian card games before? Curious where I could learn more or even try playing one of them.

Can totally relate to getting pulled into something after a chance encounter. Been skimming through that link, and it's way more informative than I expected. Learning how much thought went into these traditional games has made me reconsider how I see modern ones. This is a cool thread.
