Mancala Kalah is a very interesting and even complicated board game. It can be played against a computer opponent or a human player on the same computer.
The above description is overly simplistic. It may sound like the game is a piece of cake, but some degree of strategy is required to win. The computer opponent beat me a couple of times until I figured out how to plan for future moves. Once you do that, the game becomes much easier. In Mancala Kalah, the player who starts playing has an advantage. I read somewhere that with perfect play, the first player can win every game in the 3 to 6 seed variants.
There is a free version of Mancala Kalah available on the Mac App Store. It is fully functional, but it limits the number of starting seeds to 3 per pit.
Pros
- Help on how to play
- Nice graphics
Cons
- None
Only v1.0.2 available on the Mac App Store, no v1.0.3 anywhere.
