The Mancala Game This game--popular worldwide--originated in central Africa and was known as Wrah in the traditional Kru language spoken in parts of Liberia. The game uses a wooden board with 12 indentations in two rows of six, with two larger indentations at each end. Each of the 12 indentations are filled with small stones. To move a player must take all the stones out of one of the pits and deposit them one by one in the indentations moving either left or right until she runs out of stones. The key is to try to land stones in the large indentation on your end of the board, which symbolizes that you have captured it. The player who captures the most stones is the winner.
