Description
Malaika ... a pure abstract strategy board game for 2 players. Played with 15 glass stones each on a hexagonal board that is divided into 96 triangles of 2 different colours. Players may only move their stones forwards or sideways on their own 48 colour triangles. Stones reaching the opposite side of the board are returned to and continue from the original back row start position. It is a game of movement and capture by surrounding the opponent's stones and removing them from the board. All possible captures must be made until a player, who has only 1 stone left, concedes defeat.
