The object of the game is to end your turn with all of the cups on your side empty (excluding, of course, your end cups). If, however, player one had selected the paper clips in the third cup from the right, he would have ended by placing his last paper clip in the end cup, he gets another turn and may select the paper clips in another of his cups, continuing in the same manner. If the first player had started with the right-most cup, he would have deposited one paper clip in his end cup, then continued around the board, depositing paper clips in his opponent’s first two cups. That player would then deposit a paper clip in the third cup from the right, the second cup from the right, and finally, the right-most cup. Players take turns picking up all the paper clips from one of their cups, (except for the right-end cups, which is where the players will collect their pieces) and redistribute the pieces around the board in a clockwise direction, beginning with the cup to the right of the one from which the player took the paper clips.Įxample: On the first turn of the game, player one picks up the paper clips from the fourth cup from the right. The side of the board closest to each player, as well as the end cup on each player’s right belongs to that player. Place the game board between the two players, with the larger cups on the right and left of the players. Below are the rules from Roger Louis Sinashon’s Web site: There are many variations on the rules, so feel free to choose a different method of play. and explain the rules of Mancala to the class.
