Mancala

How to play

• Each player has 6 pits on their side and a store on their right. Every pit starts with 4 seeds.
• On your turn, pick up all the seeds from one of your pits and sow them one at a time into the following pits, anticlockwise. You sow into your own store but skip your opponent’s.
• If your last seed lands in your own store, you take another turn.
• If your last seed lands in an empty pit on your side, and the pit opposite holds seeds, you capture both the last seed and the opposite seeds into your store.

Winning

The game ends when one player’s six pits are all empty. The other player moves any seeds left on their side into their own store. Most seeds in store wins; equal stores is a draw.
