The Daily Mancala challenge for September 13, 2026: same opponent, same starting side, for every player in the world.
Sunday caps the week with the deepest-searching opponent — endgame counting decides it.
September 13, 2026 brings daily board #44: the same deal for every player, with the clock starting the moment you press Play.
The computer sows the opening move on this board. On this 48-stone deal, exactly one of the six opening sows (pit 3) lands its last stone in the store for a free extra turn, and none of them exposes an immediate capture in reply, so the first exchange is about tempo rather than traps.
At full strength the computer counts the endgame early — hoard tempo, and do not let your side empty first on bad terms.
