I.T. Kid

Lookout Now's Mancala: two rows of six pits, a store at each end, and a handful of stones to sow one pit at a time. Drop the last stone in your store and you go again; drop it in an empty pit on your side and you take the stones opposite. The player with the fuller store when the pits run dry wins.

The game sets the table three ways -- you go first with the stones at the bottom, George goes first with them at the top, or two people share the keyboard -- and it can beep on your turn so a game across the room still tells you when to move.
