Mancala is an ancient 2-player strategy game from Africa that is played today by families worldwide. To play, players take turns scooping stones from their small bowls, then dropping the stones one at a time into other small bowls around the game board. By choosing which bowl to scoop from, players use strategy to collect the most stones in their own Mancala (large bowls) and win the game! Front Porch Classics' Mancala comes with a solid wood one-piece game board, actual stones, and pegs for keeping score.
