Every room
knows when to close.

Enter the Grand Salon for eight finite authored games, or cross into the deliberately separate Night Room for one bounded Masala Mound Session. There is no feed waiting on the other side.

The centre of the House

Five doors.
Eight authored endings.

Every table unfolds across five fixed chapters, studies, or Acts. Challenge can deepen inside; nothing escapes as a public ranking, streak, randomized prize, or population comparison.

Chandigarh: The Long Way Home
Open this door

Navakankari, Aadu Puli Aattam, and Pallanguzhi are clearly labeled authored tactical rule studies. Each table names its source and documented scope, then discloses the full-match rules it intentionally omits.

Chandigarh: The Long Way Home, an original playable route from Sector 22 to the Sector 17 plaza. — Chandigarh · The Long Way Home

Table V · Chandigarh

Take the long way home.

Carry a paper city from a Sector 22 verandah to the Sector 17 plaza. Choose a street, read a fictional courtyard toy’s signals, use Gurpreet’s scarf, and align the city-centre wayfinder. Guided actions and a complete narrated route preserve the same ending.

Play The Long Way Home

Real city notes are separated from fictional people and mechanics. Compressed distances; no scores, lives, random rewards, persistent collection or sleep claims.

The north wing · a deliberately separate loop

A separate room
for goodnight.

Pair matching kitchen Tiles only when nothing covers them and one side is open. Gentle and Deeper are equal tonight-only preferences. Every legal choice keeps a path to the ending, and help points to a safe pair without playing it.

No score, visible timer, streak, grade, collection, or randomized reward.
The Session settles itself before its hidden fifteen-minute ceiling.
Dawn returns locally in the morning only if the person comes back.

The House rules

No invisible
House business.

Authored: Every chapter, Act, and outcome is fixed by design. There are no random prizes.
Private: House and Night data stay in separate local browser records. Nothing is sent by the app.
Honest: Entertainment play is not presented as a cognitive, educational, sleep, or clinical assessment.
Accessible: Native controls, visible text, keyboard paths, reduced motion, and alternate narration carry required actions.

The Punjabi-inspired art direction has not completed human cultural-authenticity review. Real-device VoiceOver and TalkBack acceptance, broader installed Safari/Android proof, and human outcome testing remain open.
