Thinnaiதிண்ணை
ONE TV · EVERY PHONE · NOTHING TO INSTALL
Game night,
on one porch.
The thinnai was the porch where a whole street gathered to talk, tease, and play. Yours is the living room: the TV is the board, every phone is a seat.

What’s on the table
NEW BOARDS EVERY THURSDAY
Oorukkaavalஊர்க்காவல்
START HEREOur Mafia / Werewolf, Tamil-village style. A hidden Hunter picks players off by night; the village argues and votes one out by day. The phone deals every secret role and runs the night — nobody sits out to moderate, so everyone plays.
Thattuதட்டு
“The tap.” A topical trivia board of porkasu coins — slap your phone when you know it, steal when they miss. Three rounds, fifteen minutes.
PLAYABLE NOW

PLAYABLE NOW

Housie for the whole family. The TV calls the numbers, your phone holds the ticket, and every claim is checked on the spot — no caller, no arguments.

Why “Thinnai”
Before feeds and group chats, there was a raised porch at the front of every Tamil home.
Strangers rested on it, neighbours argued on it, and children learned every game they knew on it. The thinnai wasn’t furniture — it was infrastructure for togetherness. We’re building the same thing out of a TV and the phones already in everyone’s pockets.
