Ali Guli Mane, a Seed-Sowing Strategy Game from Karnataka
An interactive browser game that teaches and lets you play the Karnataka pit-and-seed game Ali Guli Mane.
Field notes
Ali Guli Mane is presented as a fourteen-pit relay-sowing game using 70 seeds across a 2 × 7 board. The homepage breaks learning into ten tables, including a five-pit introduction, a sowing-path predictor, a timed counting exercise, a covered-board memory test, and compact endgame positions. Its central teaching device is to follow the final seed, inspect the next pit, and recognize when an empty pit enables a capture. The page also offers clockwise and counter-clockwise play and a guided junior mode.
