444. Sigay sa butas
Sungka is a Filipino game for two. The objective of the game is to get the most number of shells (sigay in Filipino) in your “house.” You deposit one shell in each of the smaller holes and your house, going in a clockwise direction, until you end up in an empty hole.
It’s a game of strategy and estimation because you have to make sure that when you drop the last shell in your hand, it’s either in your house (which allows you to get another go) or in an empty hole in your area with a number of shells opposite your opponent’s area (which allows you to get your opponents shell).
Mancala!!! I love this game!
