Sungka
Sungka is an old Filipino game. This is also a popular game in other Asian countries.
The game has an elongated wooden board with seven pockets on either sides. Each pocket has seven shells in it.
At both ends of the wooden board are bigger pockets, called stores. One store is for each player, usually the one found on the left hand.
At the start of the game, both players will simultaneously choose to get a bunch of shells from any of the pockets on his side of the board. Each player will then store a shell on all the pockets moving clockwise. Each player will put one shell in his own store but not in his opponent’s store.
If the last seed is put in an empty pocket, then that player stops playing. If not, then that player keeps on playing, getting shells from the pocket where his last shell has fallen in and putting these in the holes and in his store.
There are still other rules regarding this game which is also called Congklak, click here.
