Really nice!
Really pleased with this. Looked at various Oware boards and many seemed to be variable quality. I wanted one of this style (dark wood staining) and size (46cm) and this one was a good price. Very happy with the board as delivered - I got one matching the design on the store listing. Nice and solid - just the right feel of "rustic hand made in Ghana" but high quality nonetheless. They should change the picture of the open board because mine was nicer looking than the one they show. There were 50 seeds, giving me a couple of spares, but a couple of them were a bit shrivelled so nice to be able to use the best ones. Would recommend to someone wanting an Oware board of this style.

Could do with something a little more purpose built to keep it together when folder than a rubber band! (Especially with the price tag in mind )

Interesting and good family game but needs quality materials.
The hinge is rusty, old and missing nails and this effects safe keeping. Some of the peas are also shrunk. Great family game and good value for money but it's worth checking before selling.

A great game, easy to learn, a challenge to master. Attractive traditional African design.

Ich kenne dieses Spiel seit ich kleine bin. Wir haben in der Schule damit gespielt und fand sehr schön. Jetzt habe ich mir endlich das Spiel geholt und sieht super aus! Auch das Holz ist schön gearbeitet. Bin sehr glücklich.
