The opening prompt
Make Kalah-style Mancala with 6 pits per side and 4 stones each, you versus the computer. Rules: sow counter-clockwise, extra turn if the last stone lands in your store, capture when the last stone lands in an empty pit on your side opposite a non-empty pit, game ends when one side is empty and the other keeps its remaining stones. Animate stones moving one at a time. Easy and Hard computer (minimax depth 3 and 8).
