Quick facts

How a game works

Pick the sayings to play: all of them, only ukhaan or only tukka. They come in a shuffled order.
Read the emoji from left to right and say the saying out loud.
Tap Show, or the card, to see the answer in Roman and Devanagari letters with what it means.
Tap again, or Next, for the next puzzle. Back goes to the one before, and Continue game picks up where you left off.
A timer counts down on each puzzle; when it runs out, the answer shows. Its length is the turn timer in the Khelau settings.

Playing with a group

One person holds up the phone; the first to say the saying gets the point.
Keep score however you like: by hand, or the first to five.
Taking turns works too: pass the phone round and each player reads one.

Feedback mode

Feedback mode (in the game’s Settings) helps make the puzzles better. Each puzzle gets a “Not correct” button with quick reasons (emoji order mismatch, too long, does not make sense) and room for a note. The flags are sent to the Khelau team together, from Settings. With feedback mode off, the game shows no feedback buttons.
