Traditional games of Sri Lanka

[6] Angampora is a Sinhalese martial art that combines combat techniques, self-defense, sport, exercise, and meditation.

[12][13] A key component of angampora is the namesake angam, which incorporates hand-to-hand fighting, and illangam, involving the use of indigenous weapons such as the ethunu kaduwa, staves, knives and swords.

[16] Angampora's distinct feature lies in the use of pressure point attacks to inflict pain or permanently paralyze the opponent.

Fighters usually make use of both striking and grappling techniques, and fight until the opponent is caught in a submission lock that they cannot escape.

[1] Peralikatuma is a two-player abstract strategy board game from Sri Lanka (formerly called Ceylon).

The game was documented by Henry Parker in Ancient Ceylon: An Account of the Aborigines and of Part of the Early Civilisation (1909) with the name perali kotuwa or the war enclosure.
