Past Times: Oware


Oware is a board game that I used to play as a youth. It originates from the country that I am from which is Ghana. It consists of stones/seeds placed along the board. and the main object of the game it for a player to obtain more seeds than their opponent. This is only a two player game. and the way to obtain the seeds is to land on a group of four. You move the stones/seeds around by picking a group of stones/seeds, then by dropping one stone/seed into each hole. If there is still remaining stones/seeds on the last hole, then the user has to pick up that bunch and continue until the final stone is dropped into an empty bowl.
