Ashta Chamma

I gave this app a try, not really knowing anything about this game, never even heard of it before. And I was quite surprised - a great game to play before bed, or if you want to relax a bit. I've played many, many apps where I have became very frustrated, no matter how many times I try - I could never win. This app is nothing like that at all. I've won 4 out of 5 which is pretty darn good😉 The game is very easy to learn and fun to play! Give this app a try!
