I was hoping to engender interest in Da Vinci in two grandsons with this game, but all it did was bore and confuse them.

My kids love all things DaVinci, but even if you are not a DaVinci fan, this is a great mancala game. It can be played as regular mancala or you can try to make as many of the shapes on your side of the board as possible while preventing your opponent from doing the same.

We've had this game for over a year and it still gets pulled out of the closet quite a bit. Well worth having!
