Kalaha is a fun and challenging game for the entire family.

Singpleplayer:
Play against the computer on 4 different difficulty settings

Multiplayer:
Play against friends or family locally on your device!


**Rules**
The object of the game is to collect as many marbles in your goal (the big cup to the right) as possible.
The game is over when all the marbles are out of the small cups.

You can only move the marbles on your side.

You pick up all the marbles in a cup and distribute them counter-clockwise.

If the last marble lands in a cup with other marbles, you pick those up and continue.

If the last marble lands in your goal, you may pick marbles from a new cup on your side.

If the last marble lands in an empty cup, then it is your opponents turn.

If you can empty all the cups on your side, you will gain the remaining marbles on your opponents side

Latest reviews of Kalaha app for iPhone and iPad

Would have been nice, but...
...the rules are not similar to the classic Kalaha. There you get the content of your opponents stack if you put the last marble in an empty stack on your side, and thats where the strategy part starts ! Here you have to avoid empty stacks because your turn ends. So it becomes just stupid counting with a minimum of strategy, sorry, not very funny... Dear developer, please read the rules again and fix this, then it would be a 5 stars game!
No clear instructions
I downloaded this app because I thought it would be similar to other Mancala apps...and it is. Except, it doesnt appear that you may "capture" a players stones by landing a single stone in the space opposite the opponents. The problem is that I would like to check the "game rules" but there doesnt seem to be a place to access the apps instructions.
