Discover Songo, a Cameroonian strategy game: challenge the AI, play with friends, and follow every sowing move on an animated board.
Discover Songo, a Cameroonian strategy game from the mancala family of African sowing games. The 14-pit board starts with 70 seeds: sow around the board, prepare captures, and be the first to collect 40.
