About Langur Burja
Langur Burja (also spelled Langur Purja, and called Jhandi Munda, Jhanda Burja or Khor Khore) is the six-dice game that comes out when families and neighbours gather for Dashain and Tihar. Players back symbols on a mat, the dice are shaken under a bucket, and everyone counts what lands face up. This version is for fun at the table: it handles the shaking and counting, with no coins or betting.

How a round works
- Players around the table pick the symbols they back on the mat.
- The host presses Roll: a hand shakes the upturned bucket on its board with the six dice inside.
- When everyone is ready, press Pick up bucket to reveal the dice. Each die has all six symbols and every face is equally likely.
- Count how many dice show each symbol — the result panel does this for you. Settle among yourselves using your own house rules.
