Mancala is one of the most popular board games in the world, and one of the oldest; game boards have been found in Egypt dating back to 1400 B.C. It's a relatively simple game for two players that only requires counting, and it's very fun, for both kids and adults.

This is a great price for a real wooden game board with glass pieces. Sick and tired of playing Candyland with your 6-year-old? Grab this game and you'll both have fun!

Great game for kids in that awkward ages from 8 - 12,most video games are to hard or too easy and board games like monopoly have just too many directions. This game is a fast paced fun game for all. I enjoyed playing it over and over with my 10 year old. The directions are easy to understand also.
