Description | This program originates from the ancient Arabic game Mancala.
There are 4 cups marked with the letters A, B, C, D: two, the A and B, belong to the computer, the other two, the C and D, are yours. At the start of the game, all cups contain 2 pawns. In turn, the players, that is you and the computer, must take the pawns contained in one of their cups and deal one by one counterclockwise into the other cups. There must always be at least one empty cup as the pieces cannot be returned to the cup they were taken from. The winner is whoever manages to get all the pieces in one of their cups. You can choose the difficulty level (1 to 3, 1 is the simplest) and who should go first. Don't be discouraged by the initial failures because the game is really very difficult; with a little patience, however, you will be able to devise a winning strategy. |
