Each player controls the six pits on their side of the board, as well the large pit to their right (the so-called ‘Kalaha’ or ‘store’). On a turn, the player removes all the beads from one of the pits under their control and distributes the beads one by one to the adjacent pits, moving in a counter-clockwise direction, including the player’s own store and their opponent’s pits. Once a bead is placed in the kalaha, it is safe and remains there until the end of the game. The game ends when one player no longer has any beads in any of their pits. The player who has collected the most beads in their store is the winner. The historical tactical game "Deluxe Kalaha" is made from high-quality materials and suitable for 2 players aged 6 and above.
