The Viking Game

The Viking Game must rank as one of history’s greatest board games.

It was at its most popular during the Dark Ages in Northern Europe. Like so much of the history of the dark ages our knowledge of the Viking Game is patchy, a mystery now half solved as a result of archaeological research.

Learn how to play this extraordinary board game!

Mancala

Mancala • PCODE 00-013 • PID 139

Played in many countries, especially around Africa, Mancala gets you thinking strategically as you place your beads around the board.

Mancala is one of the world's most widely played games, with hundreds of variations played in many countries around the world since the time of the pharaohs. It offers an addictive blend of simplicity, subtlety and excitement, with rules that can be learnt in minutes. Mancala is a fast-moving game of skill and tactics that can be played by anyone old enough to count - and adults can play against children on an equal footing!

To move: A player picks up beads from any small bowl and moves around the board in a counter-clockwise direction, dropping one bead in each bowl as he passes. Played cunningly, a player can 'capture' an entire bowl and move its contents to his store or 'mancala' (and try to prevent his opponent doing likewise!)

For 2 players

Ages: 7 to Adult
