HOW TO PLAY
1
Place the five marked pieces in the bowl and pass it to the first player.
2
That player strikes the bottom of the bowl against the ground so the pieces bounce and land.
3
Score points according to how many pieces land showing the same marked side, using a scale agreed on before play.
4
Keep a fast rhythm going with a chant while each player takes their turn.
5
A toss that scores nothing passes the bowl straight to the next player.
6
Track points with counting sticks and play until someone reaches the agreed target.
