Navratri and Dussehra 2026: 3 games to play as a family

Sharad Navratri begins on October 11 this year and Dussehra (Vijayadashami) falls on October 20 — some regions and traditions mark it a day either side. Between puja, garba and visiting relatives there are often quiet moments; here are three games that suit them.

Reversi OK

Reversi OK is the classic disc-flipping board game. Grandparents and grandchildren can play face to face on one device, or take on the AI alone — the Easy level is good for learning the rules. Tip: a disc in a corner can never be flipped, so watch the corners.

Tic Tac Toe Multi Theme

Tic Tac Toe Multi Theme puts the classic 3×3 board on one device for a friend or family member to take turns. The rules are simple enough for a young child to learn in a minute.

Sudoku All In One

Sudoku All In One has notes, undo and hints — a calm puzzle for a long festival day.

None of them needs an account. Happy Navratri and Dussehra!
