| Description | Congkak is a popular board game played by at least two players. A Congkak match consists of several rounds of play in order to decide the winner of a match. An elongated, boat-shape vessel is used as the main component of the game. Players will strategise to capture as many seeds as they can in each round. The player who transports the maximum seeds to their kampong or storehouse wins the game. Rules and board sizes vary according to players. Traditionally, this game is mostly played by females. It is very well received by the Malay community and other ethnic groups in Malaysia. Another variation of this game in Malaysia is Pallangguli. It is a folk game of the Indian Muslim community which uses a rectangular vessel as the main device. Pallangguli can be presented as part of marriage gifts to the newlywed couple so that they can get-to-know each other better while playing the game. | ||
