Hi.
I recently heard about Mancala game, an old board game from Africa.
The instructions are very simple and I have had fun playing with my daughter. In the web, you can also find many apps and flavours of this game for different operating systems.

For fun purposes, I have developed a simple implementation of this game in SMath.
You can play "human vs human" or "human vs computer"
The algorithm for computer strategy is very simple. It only evaluate the best move for each play.

Please try it and comment bugs or improvements.
Have fun!

*****************************************************************************
Updates on oct/18/2017:
- minor bug fixes
- computer algorithm updated for a more agressive game!

It's an old thread but I'm glad to hear you've discovered Mancala - it's a cool game with a long history. Your SMath implementation sounds awesome too, and it's great that you're open to feedback.
If you're looking for another fun game to play, you can try out Blackout Bingo. It's a mobile app game that's super popular right now, and it's a great way to kill time and win some prizes. The gameplay is simple - you just mark off numbers on your card as they're called out - but there are some cool power-ups and bonuses that make it exciting. So, you can play Blackout Bingo almost anywhere. That's what I like about it.
