Dakon and Bekel...
Indonesian children's games like Congklak or Dakon, Bekel, Kelereng, Gasingan, Layangan, Kuda Lumping, Angklungan, Mobil-mobilan kulit jeruk; are not very popular anymore since electronic and hi-tech toys are introduced late of 1990s. Some were my childhood games I used to play. My favorites were Congklak or Dakon; Bekel and Lompat Tali. I would love to play them again, not the Lompat Tali though. I think I am too old for that one. But it's very hard to find the Dakon and Biji Bekel now. Even if out there somewhere we would find some, I don't think that we can find the good quality ones. I remember my sister's Biji Bekel. They were so cute, chubby and smooth. The dots were clearly marked and they were very rare to do the "peeing position." At those times, even it was hard to find the same ones. All of our family members including my dad loved to play this game. Dakon game; I used to play it with my grandmother. Most of the time she was the winner. She was excellent. This Dakon game is a kind of strategy game. I think this game is much more fun than strategy game on computer like Warcraft, Survival, and Stronghold! *Sorry, boys!* Those games actually build a good social relationship because you always need at least one partner. Look at nowadays games. Most of the time they teach you to be a individualist and a cheater. If you'd like to argue with me, please bring me evidence why do they; the Games Shops/Stores sold the cheat cd as well? Well I miss those oldies games... Is there any ukhti feel the same way like I do?
