Chebache is a great game! More complex than backgammon, but not as brain-busting as chess. I found the rule book was a lot to read, but they have quick-play cards for people like me who are too impatient to read rule books. I finally found a game I can play with my brainy brother! In general, the better player is going to win, but the dice add the element of chance, which I love! Very fun game. If you like backgammon I think you'll like chebache!
