Chula
A multi-level Wadi board game. Chula comes in a small box that when opened, causes the huge chula game board to appear.
It requires players to make their way through a series of puzzles in a holographic environment, while the primary player moves onyx figurines representing each player around the board. As the players solve a puzzle, they move to the next shap, or level. The Wadi shout "Allamaraine!" each time a shap is completed. Only children enter the game at the first shap. The player wagers on each shap. Rolls dice that are triangles on each side. New players are required to learn the rules as they play. If you stop the game, you lose your players.
In the second shap, if the roll indicates that the players will meet the Chandra, they come across a girl doing a dance and reciting a rhyme: "Allamaraine, count to four, Allamaraine, then three more, Allamaraine, if you can see, Allamaraine you'll come with me." The way is blocked by an ionic field, but the girl passes through it. The players must replicate her movements and say the rhyme to pass.
On the third shap, the player chooses short or long. The short path doubles the peril to the four players, but doubles the winnings. If none of the players makes it home, you lose your winnings. The longer path leads to a room full of drinking and laughing Wadi. The room fills with smoke which will incapacitate the players unless they also drink.
On the fourth shap, an unfortunate roll can cause you to lose a player. Thialo is a roll that means sacrifice one player so that two may live. If the player in unwilling, the game can be programmed to select one at random.
In the Sixth shap, is a rocky cavern prone to earthquakes. The players must traverse a deep crevasse. (DS9: Move Along Home)
