Product description

Based upon an ancient Ethiopian game, Mancala challenges you to capture more stones than your opponent. The strategic skills needed are simple enough for new players, but can easily ramp up to keep experienced players engaged. Granted, capturing stones may sound like a fool s game, but when you say "Mancala" at least it sounds cool. This Mancala game is made robust with amazing graphics, sound effects, and player options --and the best part about playing on the Device is never losing a marble! Play against the computer or in two-player mode for a real-life challenge. A full stats screen helps track your wins and validate your life, or at least give you something to brag about.

    This is a great, simple yet complex game. I've downloaded several versions and we like this one the best. The intermediate and advanced levels seem more challenging than the others I've downloaded. Plus I like the shape of the "stones" on this one. They seem more three dimensional.

    Played Mancala with neice on a regular board with marbles. Thought putting this on my Kindle I would be able to brush up on playing the game. This didn't download to Kindle. Have downloaded apps before, so I have done it successfully with other apps. Read other user reviews, thought problem had been resolved. I don't think so.

    I have played this game my entire life and these rules are very different. I have even played different versions and these rules are still bizzare. u only get one turn... I think the Cpu wins every time! but it is entertaining in my opinion.

    Graphics are much better on this one. The only problem I have, is that when I change the options I have to shut my kindle off and restart it to get back to playing.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Frustrating and addictive!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 3, 2013
    really enjoy playing against the computer even though it seems to win most of the time. It loads quickly and the rules are easy to pick up, even if the strategy is more difficult. I have the original game and have enjoyed playing it with both children and my class at school.
    Graphics are good and the game moves quickly. Not had a chance to play it with another person yet.
