Description
xThe selected box contains a Natural Stone Mancala set, which is one of the world's oldest and most popular two-player strategy games. The game focuses on counting, mathematical planning, and tactical stone distribution.
🕹️ How to Play
1. Sowing the Stones
- On your turn, pick up all the stones from any one of the six pockets on your side.
- Moving counter-clockwise (to the right), drop exactly one stone into each subsequent pocket you pass.
- Skipping rules: Place a stone into your own Mancala if you pass it. If you reach your opponent's large Mancala, skip it entirely and continue to the next small pocket. [1, 2]
2. Special Rules & Turn Modifiers
- Free Extra Turn: If the very last stone in your hand drops precisely into your own Mancala, you immediately get to take another full turn. [1]
- Capturing Stones: If the last stone in your hand lands in an empty pocket on your own side, you capture that stone along with all the stones in the opponent's pocket directly opposite. Move all of these captured pieces straight into your Mancala. [1]
3. Ending the Game & Winning
- The game concludes immediately when one player clears all six pockets on their side of the board.
- Any stones remaining in the pockets on the other player's side are collected by that player and placed into their own Mancala.
- Both players count their total stones; the player with the most stones wins.
