Mancala

The classic stone-sowing game. Beat all 5 opponents, or play a friend on this screen.

How to play

  • 1Tap one of your pits (bottom row). Its stones are picked up and dropped one at a time, going right and around the board.
  • 2Pass your store (the big pit on your right) and drop a stone in it. Never drop in your opponent's store.
  • 3Extra turn: if your last stone lands in your store, you go again. Hints mark these with a loop arrow.
  • 4Capture: if your last stone lands in an empty pit on your side, you take it and every stone in the pit straight across. Hints mark these with a star.
  • 5The game ends when one side is empty. The other side's stones go to that side's owner. Most stones in the store wins (25 of 48 is enough).

Tip: press and hold a pit to preview where its stones will land.
