So I've finally released my game. If you see the BBerryGo name, that is me. It works for the Storm, Tour, Curve 8900, Bold, Curve 83XX just to name a few (so share with friends to get your multi-player on!).
Here is a demo video of the game play (against computer):
It is only 99 cents and I will have a free trial up soon.
The game has a computer with 3 difficulty levels. However, the best part of the game is that it supports multi-player via BlackBerry Messenger!
Let me know what you guys think.
MORE INFO AND PURCHASE
The instructions are included in the game but here they are below:
Instructions
Layout
Each player "owns" the mancala to his/her right and the six small bowls closest to him/her. Each of the small bowls has 4 pieces in it (can be changed in options), called stones.
To begin
Player 1 starts by selecting one of his/her small bowls (players may never start from a mancala or from the opponent's six bowls). The stones will drop one by one in the small bowls to the right of the one selected, continuing around the board (counterclockwise) until all stones are placed.
Movement
If Player 1 reaches his/her own mancala, a stone will be dropped into it, gaining one point. As the stones move around the board, the stones will never drop into their opponents' mancalas, they will be skipped over and continue dropping one at a time, until there are no more stones. Players take turns moving.
Goal
The game ends when one player no longer has stones in his small bowls. At the end of the game, the player with the most stones collected in their respective mancala wins. Note: If the other player still has stones on his side, all remaining stones are emptied into his/her own mancala (it is not necessarily an advantage to be the first player to empty the six bowls).
Special moves
1. If after a player selects a bowl and the last stone lands into his/her mancala, he/she gets to move again.
2.If the last stone from the selected bowl drops into one of the empty bowls on his/her side of the board, he/she then takes that stone, plus all the stones in the opponent's bowl directly across from his/her bowl and places them in his mancala (called a capture).Last edited by jcqns; 08-11-09 at 12:44 AM.
