PressmanMancala - Real Wood Folding Set, with Multicolor Stones by Pressman, 2 players

I stumbled upon Pressman Mancala, a game from my childhood, and decided to introduce it to my husband, who had never heard of it. Little did we know, it would become our go-to game, and we play it all the time now!This timeless gem has proven that classic games have a special place in any era. The simplicity of Pressman Mancala is deceptive – it's easy to learn, yet the strategic depth keeps each game engaging and competitive. The smooth gameplay and colorful stones add a charming touch that makes every round enjoyable.Playing Mancala has become a bonding experience for us. It's a fantastic way to unwind, strategize, and share a few laughs. The fact that it stood the test of time, captivating both my childhood memories and my husband's newfound love for it, makes Pressman Mancala a truly great buy. It's a classic that has found a permanent spot in our game night rotation.

I love playing Mancala, and this is a very nice set for the price. I ended up sanding the board a little bit as it was rough in some places and I wanted the pits to be a little deeper. I’ve played on boards that had shallow pits and oversized gem stones, which makes it difficult to keep all of the stones from falling out. These stones are a good size and the holes or pits were average depth. The board sits level when in the open position, which I was concerned about as I’ve never had a board with this type of hinge. It’s attractive and practical and I would recommend.

I love this game! It is made great! So fun not play. Great price. Light weight and folds up so it’s easily traveled with. We love this game!

Such a great game !The weight of the board is ok and super easy to transportWe have been playing since we are ten !!!

It's a fun game. The wood is very sturdy and well made. The stones come in extra, i think 2 more. I wish there was a separate pouch for the stones, so I don't have to worry about losing it from the box when I handle it.

We bought this because we originally were gifted the kids version with little animals (which we loved). Unfortunately, the hinges on that game broke so we needed a replacement. This game came with a ziplock bag to store the pebbles and the box is SO compact that the items inside fit just perfectly! Extra large bulky boxes are so frustrating. Would totally buy this again!

Perfect gift for “unplugged” Christmas was fun to play for various ages Quality product sturdy

I read the reviews of many Mancala games. This was the least expensive but since Amazon reviews seem a bit off, I was worried and knew I could return it. There's no magnet, no lock but the set is fabulous and I have no complaints. We've played 2-3 games when we sit to play it. Glass or plastic "beads" are fine. I don't see wear yet. We knew basic rules and the instructions that come with the set are written well. I complain a lot :) but I like the construction of the set and no lock - no problem, put glass pieces in the game set and put it in the cardboard box.
