I have been thinking a lot about why Indians are so attached to digital versions of traditional games and it seems that there are several factors at play. According to https://surebets.bet/news/understanding-indias-love-of-digital-versions-of-traditional-games/22221702/, India is a country with a rich history and culture, where preserving traditions has always been an important aspect of life. Traditional games like Ludo, Karram or Chhatti are steeped in history and culture. They are not just played, they are valued because they connect generations. When digital versions come along, they give people the opportunity to not only preserve these traditions but also adapt them to new realities. It is like a bridge between the past and the future. Digital versions of these games, such as on mobile apps, allow people, especially the youth, who may not always have the time or opportunity to play at a real table, to continue to interact with the culture. Plus, India is a country with a huge population and diverse cultural traditions. Games like Ludo and Carram have become something of a universal language that connects people across regions and social classes. Digital versions of these games are becoming more than just fun, but a way to maintain social connection, especially in a time when distances can be significant and access to traditional physical games is limited.

I agree that this is a really interesting topic. I think it is worth adding that although digital versions of traditional games seem to be quite popular in India, for many people the traditional way of playing still remains important. Sitting at a table, watching the game, chatting with friends - it is not only about the game itself, but also about communication, the atmosphere. Technology certainly helps, but it cannot always convey the atmosphere that is present in real communication. It is interesting how this balance is maintained in families, where many generations can play at the same time - this is what I think is important in the context of using digital games.
