Скачать или смотреть Awari (1973) | Digital Take on an Ancient Board Game | 029

Awari is a text-based video game simulation of the family of ancient Mancala board games. This game does not actually use the Awari/Oware ruleset, but rather the Kalah ruleset. Kalah is the Westernised version that was developed in the 1950s, and has a much simpler ruleset compared to the African Awari/Oware variant.

This game was also programmed with a computer opponent that learns to play better as you go along. I played four rounds to display how the computer improves over time.

This game and many other early text-based games can be downloaded and played through Vintage BASIC: http://vintage-basic.net/index.html
