👕 Your look🎮 How to play
✊ Andolankari: walk towards the cursor (or WASD). Bump into people and they join your kafila, which marches behind you.
E = naara: more people pour out of the shops. Right-click / Shift = dash. Hold click on a barricade to push it — the bigger the kafila, the harder the push.
F near a 📺 reporter = TV interview (it can go viral and bring 15–25 people). F near an 🛺 auto or taxi = a ride towards Jantar Mantar (kafila of 3 at most).
F at a 🚇 metro entrance = a quick ride underground towards Jantar Mantar (kafila of 20 at most; shut during an internet shutdown). Stand still 3 s at a ☕ chai stall for a chai break: stamina back and a few more people.
Rounds run from morning to night — an evening dharna by candle light counts a little more. In the rain fewer people come out and tear gas washes away fast.
Section 163: groups under 30 get stopped at the outer cordon ("Permission dikhao!"). Inside the inner zone you need 100+ people together, or security detains you on the spot.
Detained? You sit in the DETENTION BUS. It leaves for Kapashera Border at 50 people — before that you can slip out, and 40+ protesters round the bus can gherao it and free everyone, even block it on the road.
🛵 Zaika Express and Swaad Rider bring food to big kafilas: less scattering, full stamina.
Sit at the dharna inside Jantar Mantar to fill the POWER bar. Best of 3 rounds.
🎥 Camera: mouse wheel (or pinch on a phone) zooms out to see more streets; Z / X or a middle-mouse drag changes the angle; C resets. The buttons under the map do the same.
Powers (R / B, or the two small buttons on a phone): ✊ R = 🔗 human chain (10+ people link arms: no lathi can pull the leader out, half the losses, but slow) · B = 🚩 dharna banner (more people join near it; in the dharna zone it counts extra). 👮 R = 💦 water cannon truck (sprays a kafila apart) · B = 🚧 put up a barricade (40 s).
👮 Dilli Police:click = lathi, right-click hold & release / G = tear gas, J = internet shutdown (no map, half naara range), F at a reporter = press briefing. Hold the dharna back until time runs out.
More keys:M mute · N dhol · Q graphics · T switch team · Tab scores · Wheel zoom · Z/X camera angle · C reset camera.
❓ What is it?
Chalo Jantar Mantar is a free 3D online multiplayer satire game you play right in your browser,
on a PC or a phone, with nothing to download. It is set on a small cartoon New Delhi: the Connaught Place
circles, Janpath, Sansad Marg, India Gate and, at the heart of it, Jantar Mantar.
Two teams of six play against each other, and bots fill any empty seats.
As an andolankari you start at a Delhi border or metro station and march to Jantar Mantar,
growing your kafila, raising naaras, giving TV interviews, hailing autos and pushing through barricades.
As the police you hold the Section 163 cordon with lathi, tear gas, detention buses and internet shutdowns.
