Mancala

 

In this edition of a classic pit game there are twelve pits in two rows and one elongated pit, called Mancala, at both ends of the rows, one for each player. At the start of the game you seed each pit with four pieces. Players face their own row with their Mancala at the right end. In a turn you empty on of his own pits and distributes the content into the next pits, one by one, skipping the opponent’s Mancala. When the last piece drops into your pit you have another turn. When the last piece drops into an empty pit you can put it and all pieces from the exactly opposite pit into your own Mancala. This ends your turn. You win if you have collected more than 24 pieces in your Mancala. When all your pits are empty you cannot move; the other player can put all pieces from his pit into his Mancala, who then has more pieces in his Mancala wins.
