Parchís is an Spanish board game. An adaptation of Pachisi. Parchís was a very popular game in Spain at one point, and it is still popular. Since it uses a die, Parchís is not usually regarded as an abstract strategy game like checkers or chess. It does not depend entirely on luck either, since the four pawns under a player's command demand some sort of strategy. Traditionally, each player has a cubilete (dice cup) to shake and toss the die. This does not affect the course of the game itself, but most habitual players find it imperative.

  • Parchís is an Spanish board game. An adaptation of Pachisi. Parchís was a very popular game in Spain at one point, and it is still popular. Since it uses a die, Parchís is not usually regarded as an abstract strategy game like checkers or chess. It does not depend entirely on luck either, since the four pawns under a player's command demand some sort of strategy. Parchís is license-free in Spain, so in stores it is just as easy to find as a deck of cards, and is usually cheaper. Although the original game allows up to four players (that is, the board counts four colors: yellow, blue, red and green), six-player versions are not hard to find (adding orange and purple, in that order), and eight-player boards can be found in big toy stores. Traditionally, each player has a cubilete (dice cup) to shake and toss the die. This does not affect the course of the game itself, but most habitual players find it imperative.
