Solving Kalah Kalah facts Rules of the game Kalah is played on a board with two rows of round pits and two additional oval collect pits, called 'kalah' or 'kalahah'. Each player in turn picks up all the seeds in any one of their own six pits and puts them one by one in each pit around to the right.
All seeds placed in an opponent's pit now belong to the opponent.
If the player's last seed lands in that player's own kalah, that player gets another turn. If the last seed lands in an empty pit on that player's own side, that player captures all of the opponent's seeds in the opposite pit and puts them in that player's kalah together with the capturing piece. The round is over when all six pits on one side are empty. The other player adds the remaining seeds in the pits to his kalah. The score is determined by who has the most seeds.
