Hello!
I just want you to know that in the Philippines, the name of Congklak is Sungka. The same principle applies- collect all the stones from your opponent!
I have a lot of fond memories playing this first with my mom, my sister and my childhood friends. Unfortunately, in this age, it is already becoming obsolete because kids these days do nothing but tinker with their gadgets.
Aahh.. we have a wonderful childhood memory on the game 😊 I don't know whether any kids of this millenial generation knows how to play it while we can spend our times for hours to play the Sungka 😆
Sometimes when we couldn't afford to buy the boards, we use a circle or hole on the ground 😂😂😂 by the way, we use marbles instead of stone or dried rubber seeds😊
We do that also. Actually, we use whatever round, hard object including beads to play with.
its quite a pity that kids these days do not play them. They would have learned a lot from them.
