This app offers a collection of two-player strategy board games from the mancala family, including Kalah, Oware, and Congkak. Players use seeds or counters on a board with six houses per side and two end zones (stores). The goal is to amass more seeds than your opponent.

The app features different gameplay mechanics for each mancala variant.

Kalah:

1. Begin with four (or five/six) seeds in each house.
2. Each player controls their six houses. The score is the number of seeds in your store.
3. Players take turns sowing seeds from one of their houses counter-clockwise, including their own store but excluding their opponent's.
4. If the last seed lands in an empty house and the opposite house has seeds, both are captured and added to the player's store.
5. Landing the last seed in your store earns an extra turn. There's no turn limit.
6. The game ends when one player has no seeds left in their houses. Remaining seeds are added to the opponent's store, and the player with the most seeds wins.

Oware:

1. Start with four (or five/six) seeds in each house. Each player controls their six houses. The score is the seeds in the player's store.
2. Players sow seeds counter-clockwise from a chosen house, skipping the starting house and stores. If the starting house had 12 or more seeds, the 12th seed is placed in the next house.
3. Capture occurs when the last sown seed brings an opponent's house to exactly two or three seeds. This captures those seeds, and possibly more, continuing until a house with a different count or belonging to the player is reached. Captured seeds go to the player's store.
4. If an opponent's houses are empty, the current player must make a move that gives the opponent seeds. If impossible, the player captures all seeds in their territory, ending the game.
5. The game ends when one player captures over half the seeds, or both have half (a draw).
