About Kalesh House
Kalesh House is a free game about ten weeks inside a reality show house. Eleven housemates move in: a Rohtak wrestler with a short fuse, a South Delhi influencer, a TV star, an ad film director who plans three moves ahead, a Ludhiana aunty who runs the kitchen, a rapper, a comic, a singer and more, and two wildcards walk in later having watched everyone on TV. Each one has a goal (win, love, fame, money, revenge, proving everyone wrong, protecting someone) and a secret.
In free time the house screen shows who is in which room. Tap anyone to see what you have learnt about them and a short hand of moves that fit right now: comfort someone who was just nominated, call out a person whose lie you caught, apologise for an old grudge, flirt with someone who keeps looking at you, plot a nomination. Every move shows its odds first, then rolls, and the result tells you why. Nobody hands you a points table: India decides what was worth watching, and the fans you win are your score.
Every week changes the format: Godown Loot or a ration deal for food, secret, open, chain or captain nominations, Matka Relay or Takiya Kalesh (a pillow fight on a mattress) for luxuries, the house vote or Kursi Ki Jung (musical chairs) for captain, and a twist: a secret task, the Adalat, settled with a tomato fight, a wildcard, letters from home or the Ticket to Finale, won by stacking the tallest tower of steel trays. Host night reveals every nomination, every lie and India's favourites, and the public votes on Sunday, with a double eviction, a secret room and a finale along the way.

How to play
- Pick a housemate: eighteen to choose from, each with a life story and a secret.
- Use free time: go to someone and pick from the moves that fit them right now. Their traits, mood, hunger and history with you decide how it lands.
- Win India: the audience loves what is new, what is at stake and what pays off. Do the same thing over and over and they change the channel.
- Play the tasks: carry sacks, balance pots, grab a chair when the music stops, knock rivals off the mattress, throw tomatoes and stack trays without a wobble.
- Survive the vote: four audiences vote every Sunday, and you see exactly why. Last one standing in week ten wins the trophy.
- Climb the leaderboard: your fans are saved at the end of every week, so a long season counts even if you stop halfway.

FAQ
Is Kalesh House free?
Yes. It runs in your browser on computers and phones (in landscape), with nothing to install.
Is this a real show?
No. The house, the housemates, the host and the voice of the House are all made up. It is inspired by Indian reality TV.
How long is a game?
A full season is ten weeks of house time, about 25 minutes a week. It saves in your browser, so you can play a week at a time.
Does it play out the same every time?
No. Every move rolls dice, every housemate gets a random goal and secret, the formats change every week and the house acts on its own, so each season tells a different story.
How do I get on the leaderboard?
Create a free account (18+). Your score is the fans you win: India talks about moments that are new, risky and that pay off something from before. It is saved at the end of every week.
