Mancala

Play Mancala, the classic pit-and-stone strategy game. Take turns sowing stones around the board, plan your captures, and collect more stones than your opponent.

Two game variations:

Kalah A version popular in North America and parts of Europe. Choose a pit, sow its stones one at a time counter-clockwise, and pass through your end pit, called your store. Customize house rules such as captures and end-of-game cleanup. The first player to collect 25 of the 48 stones wins.

Oware, also known as Warri or Ouri The version used in international tournaments and played across parts of Africa and the Caribbean. Choose a pit and sow its stones one at a time counter-clockwise. If the final stone lands in an opponent's pit and brings that pit to 2 or 3 stones, you capture those stones. The first player to collect 25 stones wins.

Multiple ways to play:

AI Play against 10 named AI opponents. Some are clever, some are not so clever, and each has its own style.

Local Passing Play locally with a friend by passing the device back and forth. The board rotates between turns.

Local Flat On Table On a Steam Deck or tablet-style setup, place the device between you and a friend and treat it like a real Mancala board. The turn prompt rotates toward the current player.
