Mancala, one of the world's oldest and most beloved games, is now available in a folding wooden board edition from Pressman. This affordable version is perfect for playing at home or on the go. Players take turns scooping up the special stones and dropping them one by one into the pockets on the board. If they drop a stone into an empty pocket on their side, they capture all the stones in the opposite pocket. Despite its simple appearance, Mancala requires strategic thinking and helps reinforce STEM skills such as counting and planning.

The winner of the game is the player who collects the most stones. The game set includes a hinged wooden playing board, 48 plastic stones, and complete instructions.

The set includes a high-quality wood hinged playing board, 48 plastic stones, and complete instructions.
