Great display, & awesome interface, just like the real AYO.Great App indeed But there's in a challenge. if opponent is on 21 and player is on 24. left with 3 seed. it won't let you finish game, the only option left is to quit and it will let you knw you're losing your point. please when updating, you need to work on that, only on level (3) Lastly, I put 70 coin to play online money gone but opponents never came up to play, just kept saying waiting,later Says game over but money was not refunded

Nice graphics (at least for the boards, the "wooden theme" for the cover is quite "deja vu"): clean and clear. The AI is well thought: rather easy at the lower levels, since level 5 it starts being non-trivial. The possibily of face-to-face matches on the same device is very appreciated. I could not test remote matches, as nobody seems to be on line. In summary, the best Oware / Awale app among the 4 or 5 I tried.

There are many rule sets for this ancient game; this uses one of the worst. By level 9, most games end in a draw, chasing stones around and around. Add for two player mode, unless someone makes a mistake forget about winning.
