Seedhollow: Mancala & Oware

Seedhollow: Mancala & Oware is a one-player seed-sowing game with two traditional rule sets, Kalah and Oware Abapa, played against AI rivals. Sow seeds around the board, win extra turns and captures, and work through tactical puzzles and a daily puzzle. Two rule sets are included from the start: • Kalah (6 pits, 4 seeds): six pits per player and a store at each end. Sow seeds counter-clockwise through your pits and your store. A last seed in your store gives an extra turn. A last seed in an empty pit of yours captures the seeds in the pit opposite. • Oware Abapa: 48 seeds in 12 pits. A pit with 12 or more seeds laps the board and skips its own pit. Ending your sowing in an opponent's pit that then holds 2 or 3 seeds captures them, and the capture continues backwards through earlier pits that also hold 2 or 3. A move that would capture every enemy seed captures nothing, and you must give your opponent seeds when their side is empty and you can. Ways to play: • Club Ladders: a Kalah ladder and an Oware ladder, each with 12 rivals in four venues (Courtyard, Lantern Market, Hilltop Veranda, Moon Terrace). The first venue is single games; the other three are best-of-3 matches. Each rival gives up to 3 stars: win the match, win the deciding game by 10 or more seeds, and use no Undo. • Quick Game: choose Kalah or Oware, who starts, and one of six AI levels (Pebble, Sprout, Sapling, Branch, Grove, Hollow). In Kalah you can also set 3, 4, 5 or 6 seeds per pit and switch on a capture of one seed when the opposite pit is empty. Undo is free in quick games. • Tactical Puzzles: 300 "win in N moves" puzzles (200 Kalah, 100 Oware) in three tiers: Quick Tactics, Combinations and Deep Calculation. Each has one winning first move, found by exact search. A Hint is available as an optional video. • Daily Puzzle: one puzzle a day from a 728-day cycle, alternating Kalah and Oware, with a streak counter and a month calendar. • Interactive Lessons: 5 lessons on sowing, extra turns, Kalah captures, Oware laps and captures, and feeding and the grand slam. • Review and Statistics: step through a finished game move by move, and see your records. Look and feel: • Board and seed themes: Teak Seeds and Olive Pebbles from the start, Olive Clay after 18 ladder stars and Teak Jade after 45, plus four more with Carver's Set. • Seeds drop into the pits with sound effects and background music, each with its own switch in Settings. Optional landing preview marker and pit numbers. • Every pit and store shows its seed count as a number. • Everything runs on your device with no account. Carver's Set (one-time purchase) unlocks: • 100 Master puzzles: 60 Kalah and 40 Oware, 7 to 8 moves deep. • Carver's Kalah, a ladder of 6 rivals in two more venues (Carver's Workshop and Cedar Gallery), played with 6 seeds per pit. • 4 more board and seed themes: River Stones, Shell Beach, Glass Beads and Brass Hall. The game contains ads and offers in-app purchases. A full-screen ad called Sowing break can appear only when you leave a finished game result screen, and never before your fourth finished game. Undo (ladder games), Puzzle hint (up to 3 a day) and Daily second try are optional rewarded videos that play only when you choose them. Remove Ads is a one-time purchase that removes the Sowing break ads; the rewarded offers stay. Carver's Set is a one-time purchase that unlocks extra puzzles, the Carver's Kalah ladder and four more themes; it does not remove ads. The game works offline. The internet is used only for ads and for purchases through Google Play. It is for players aged 18 and over. No consumables, no pay-to-win, no timers.
