Listen to me boardgamesweekly.com shoppers. This thing is the best thing I have ever bought. Ever. It is beautiful, hand crafted, shipped with love, and perfect all around. I can not wait to watch my wife open this for Christmas.

I sent this directly to the grandsons several states away so I didn’t get to see it in person, but it was a major hit with the grandsons, who had admired a different mancala board I have. So many mancala boards, especially made specifically for the American market have poorly made hinges and with the cup depressions are too small, and sometimes too rough. This one comes from West Africa and appears up the standards of traditional players who actually regularly play the game. There are many variations of this game using the same game board, so it can provide variety and new challenges as well a chance to learn more about other cultures and even game theory.

I looked at lots of different Mancala games before deciding on this one. I’m very glad I chose this one. I love the authenticity of the workmanship and the seeds that come with it. I really like the fact that this one folds straight down the middle of the board, instead of crossways. That way there is no gap or hinge to fumble over as you play.

I love this item but know that on the one that closes sideways there is a small crack in your point well that will be present. Due to the hinges lining up and the two
Pieces of wood not closing while open. Hinges a big loose on this one also. Other than that so beautifully carved. Nice sellers.
