Kalah · Mancala · Slavic
A stranger placed the board between us. No explanation — only bones, six pits, and the silence that counts. Think fast and clear, and you win. Hesitate, and you lose everything.
Tablut · Norse · 9th Century
The king sits at the centre. Attackers come from four directions. Carry him to the corner and you win — surround him and you win too. A game that knows no mercy.
Mlyn · Slavic · 9th Century
Three rings. Nine stones each. Place them, move them, close a mill — and take. The oldest board game in the world. The stranger knows it by heart.
