mancala

Mancala is a family of board games played around the world, sometimes called "sowing" games, or "count-and-capture" games, which describes the gameplay. The word ''mancala'' comes from the Akan. No one game exists with the name ''mancala''; the name is a classification or type of game.
More than 800 names of traditional mancala games are known, and almost 200 invented games have been described. However, some names denote the same game, while some names are used for more than one game.
Some of the most popular mancala games (with regard to distribution area, the numbers of players and tournaments, and publications) are:
* Bao la Kiswahili – widespread along the east coast of Africa, and an integral part of Swahili culture; one of the most difficult games to learn because of its rather complex rules;
* Congkak – close variants in South Asia from the Maldives to the Philippines, known by many different names (e.g. Dakon, Ohvalhu, Sungka〔In the Philippines, the accent of said word in writing the diacritic mark should have circumflex, sungkâ.〕);
* Kalah – a modern game played mostly in the US (where it is simply known as "Mancala") and Europe
* Oware (''awalé, awélé'') – close variants are played in the Caribbean, throughout western Africa, and in immigrant communities in North America and Europe;
* Toguz korgool or Toguz kumalak – played in Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan, where it is considered superior to chess.
== General gameplay ==
Most mancala games share a common general game play. Players begin by placing a certain number of seeds, prescribed for the particular game, in each of the pits on the game board. A player may count their stones to plot the game. A turn consists of removing all seeds from a pit, "sowing" the seeds (placing one in each of the following pits in sequence) and capturing based on the state of board. This leads to the English phrase "count and capture" sometimes used to describe the gameplay. Although the details differ greatly, this general sequence applies to all games.
