AGameAWeek - Games by Jayenkai

I have never played this game before so it was fresh and fun for me. After 2 defeats and some reading of the rules I got the hang of it and was able to beat the AI few times.

The ancient board games of Seeds and Pits.
Move all of the seeds from one of your pits, moving anti-clockwise, and dropping one seed at a time. If you "land" on your large Mancala pit, you earn an extra go.
The winner is the player with the most seeds in their Mancala, once no more moves are possible.

Spent a couple of hours, late last night, trying to find the best rules to give AL when playing Mancala.

Mancala's coming along nicely, now. I think!! All the Landing rules seem to be working, and the game-end stuff is also functional, but AL's still not very good at the game, so a little more work on AL is needed. But, definitely getting there! *phew*

The seeds (gems in this case) of Mancala are now managing to complete a full circle!

I might need to do some extra work on the menus.

I asked @CraigGrannell last night if the "swoopy" menus were a bit too much for his motion sickness issues, and he replied that it was.. For me, a bit, yeah. I thought as much when I added those Tap Swoopy things, but it's good to get a little confirmation.

A simple crossword clone, with a slightly different scoring mechanism. You can Play Crossword Golf in the Shoebox, next to the standard Crosswords game, in the Word games!

Upon each move of this classic Tile-based word game, a computer opponent will set a "Par" target.
Try to score as close to the target as you can, in order to earn the most points.
Your score will be based on how close to the target you get, rather than the value of your words.

Alan Suggests..

While I'm thinking about it, one nice-to-have feature for Crossword Game would be ''shuffle my rack''. Sure, ok, why not!

Not really a game, but if I'm going to make this collection, you just know that this has to go in. You can Find Score My Words in the Shoebox, in the Extras section.

I've sorted out RSKGames' menu scrolling issue.. .. I think.. But obviously will depend on many "browsers aren't exact" issues. Be sure to let me know if it's ok for you.

Note : Not a Game
This is a tool to aid in the playing of Real World Scrabble. You can use this to add up word values, keep track of scores, and it even has minimal word checking integrated, too.

This tool works great when run on a board-side tablet device. You might also like to use HDMI/AirPlay/ChromeCast to stream the gameplay to your TV, at which point you can then stream it online, if you're that sort of player.

RSKGames says..

The animation of the icons on transition from main menu to sub menu and back looks cool. Except the board games sub menu in all other sub menus the first row icons are way over the top such that half the icon is hidden above. Took me a while to figure out exactly what he meant, as the exact number of onscreen icons relies on all sorts of screen resolution gubbins.. .. But..
