I built the game last night. Posting this after doing some testing & fixing today. The tigers and goats are from free cliparts on the web. Rest are all my original work. :) If you want to know the rules of the game and about many more traditional games of India, visit the KreedaaKaushalya Blog.
The game is in beta. The UI is symmetric and the board is not sensitive to which player is interacting. The board will allow any valid move. This also allows one to play both sides from a single browser window. :)
To place goats just click on a vacant spot. To move a piece click on the piece, and then click on the destination. The board refreshes itself every 30 seconds (to fetch other players move). You can also manually refresh by clicking the Refresh Game link on the top. It can't recognize when the game is over. So, when the game is over, close the window/tab to avoid continuous reloads every 30 seconds.
The game uses CSS and JavaScript to manipulate DOM on the client end, and PHP sessions at the backend. I'll work on optimizing the game, and on the UI, when I find more time to devote to this.
Enjoy playing Aadu-Puli. :)

Hi Prakash, thanks for your comments on my blog 'KreedaaKaushalya.blogspot.com'
Can you please enlighten me on how to make a gif animation play on the blogspot?
I also tried to play your Adu Huli beta version. But whenever I click on a vacant point to place a sheep, nothing happens and I get an error message.
Your effort to create the online playable version of Aduhuli is highly appreciated. I will give a link to it, once it is running properly, in my blog.
Is it possible to embed the same as a post in my blog?
If you happen to visit Mysore then please drop in at our store where you can find loads of other games as well. Also would look forward to interact with you personally. Thanks a lot.
