Africa Heartwood Project OWAC Board Games Editorial Review

The African Oware Mancala Seed Board Game is a beautifully crafted piece of art that doubles as a conversation starter. Made with solid wood and featuring a rich tone, this game is pleasing to the eye and the touch. It is well-made and offers a unique, beautiful product that supports a grassroots movement. The game itself is enjoyable and can be played alone or with someone, providing a soothing sound and feel of the seeds. However, some customers have reported missing components, such as the leather strip mechanism for closing the game.
