Description

[Edit] [History]

Afrika (German for: "Africa") was invented on March 2, 2004, by Ralf Gering in Germany. The game was added to Super Duper Games on November 2, 2006.

This modern mancala game has several unusual features:

  • capturing is compulsory
  • capturing is considered a complete move
  • capturing occurs when you have an empty hole

Afrika has a distinctive Draughts-like feeling because of its forced winning combinations.
