Having grown up in Ghana, the first game I tried was chaskele.
Was expecting a reference to BBC (Bela Boys Company) somewhere. Rather disappointed not to find one.
Never mind any issues about playability etc. Just the fact that AI has allowed someone to create a project that will make many people think a little bit more about Ghana make me happy.

++++. It's remarkable that this is so doable these days! We just need someone to make a Squid Games: Ghana version and our games will be popular all over the world
I probably wouldn't have read an article about Ghanaian street games, but did learn about them from this. And even if I did, I wouldn't have internalized it without playing.
So while I won't come back to the same game because the gameplay isn't good enough, I think it really depends on what they are trying to accomplish.
You forgot poison
Ha, ha - very entertaining.

As a Ghanaian, I think this is a cool concept but needs a lot of improvements to make it work.
Many controls don't work well. Might be better to focus on a few games and make dedicated UIs for them that are adapted to each game.
I guess it is a nice introduction to street games in Ghana though.
I just sit on the home screen, listening to the music and taking in the vibe. I don't even need to play a game. Very pleasant.
All us Ghanaians coming out of the woodwork for this nostalgia bomb - these are fun. Congrats on the launch!
I saw Ludo but no games of the mancala family (Wari, Bao, etc).
Would definitely have expected to see Oware.
I like the music. Nice that you give credit to the artist too.
I upvote creativity wherever I see it
The idea is good but it looks like a one-shot AI slop. I think you should put much more effort into each game until releasing so many games.

fellow Ghanaian here - this is really cool, good work.
Pretty fun! How did you create this? And why do the elbows look so funny? :D
send this prompt: make it easy to play, thanks in reggards.
I love this!
very cool :)
