Royaumes Africains (2014)

"A print'n play, pit and peebles inspired African themed game. During the medieval times, kingdoms and empires rise and fall in the African continent. The object of the game is simple, it uses a mancala/oware/awele style mechanic. As a player, take control of one of the four kingdoms, rise, expand, and collect resources before falling. You will do so using a "pit and pebbles" gaming mechanic, sowing your cubes and harvesting with the last cube you sow. You will also use cubes from new comers (Europeans, Chinese, Persians, Arabs...) as Africa become a land of conquest. You can sow and harvest player cubes with these cubes, but you can't harvest new comers' cubes. So new comers will slowly gain control of the land as players use them, and players' kingdoms will fall. At the end of the game, when there are no more players cubes, the winner is the player who has harvested the most cubes. The game is for 2-4 players, from 6 y.o. The board is language independent, rules are in French, soon in English. "
