Is your local game includes in online casino ?

[Frankolala]

Every game that we come across in life was originated from a village or community. This is our own traditional game that has been there ever since, it is called 'Ayo' which means a game for intellectuals,this is because it needs some mathematical calculation to win the game. It is a board game in which two persons can play in a competition but a home or for fun 2,3,4 or six players can play it. It is called ayo because the seed that is used for the game was gotten from a plant called ayo.

In my country especially in the western part where this game was originated, during festivals or traditional events,this game is used for an open gamble as a means of entertainment to the people. An amount will be paid by the participants in other to participate in the game,at the end of the game the winner will be given a huge sum of money and he will be respected by everyone.

Can this game be included in a casino platform ? Do you have a local game in your country and what is the name ? How will you feel if you see it in an online casino,will you be happy to play it or will prefer playing something new ?

In our country this is called "sungka", since this is pvp and mostly 2v2 it would be hard to attract users/players to play the game just like what poker us struggling with in the online scene. I have to admit I'm getting old that I played this a decade ago I guess, I use to play this during my childhood and it's a great game to pass the time. I think it's good to be in a casino but as I've said it will be difficult to attract players.

I often see this board game at my place but it's only played by women, rarely do I see men playing this game, I didn't think that this game would exist in casinos and it's enough as a regional game, no more besides, it seems like there aren't many gamblers interested in this game in the casino

[Lanatsa]

This is really just like that Bantumi game which you could play on my old Nokia 3310

I dont know if this one would be having the same game concept but it do really looks like but this one do involves on having that
wood platform with having holes on where those stones been placed.
Pretty sure that it is really a bit common on southeast asian countries or something near that.

Do you have a local game in your country and what is the name ?
How will you feel if you see it in an online casino,will you be happy to play it or will prefer playing something new ?

^I did not see that game online probably because that game is a player-to-player game.
That game is called, Mancala in Southeast Asian. That uses small stones, seeds, or any small objects that can be put in the hole.
But in other countries, there are different names. That is Congkak in Malaysia, Dakon in Indonesia, and Sunka in the Philippines. I don't know how it is possible online but I think it is more fun to play.

Your local game can be included if there is a local online casino in your area, we used to have a dedicated online cockfighting that targeted our local bettors for that particular game, it become so popular that operators are raking in huge money and the government has a cash cow on this kind of games, some online casinos have included this because of the popularity and they targeted our local bettors but because of too many anomalies, the government stopped it.
A local game if it's adopted in other countries or can easily explain and play can be included in online casinos, but game providers are only interested to add games that are already popular among gamblers.

We have many local games.
But not sure if they can be adapted to online casinos.
Maybe Dam-daman, Klereng, and Boi-boian are possible to adapt on casino games.

That is Congkak in Malaysia, Dakon in Indonesia, and Sunka in the Philippines. I don't know how it is possible online but I think it is more fun to play.

In some areas in Indonesia, we also call this game "Congkak" or "Congklak" although it is also familiar with Dakon.
Yep, I never saw this game in gambling sites or casinos, but it seems interesting to have this game in online casinos.
It will be fun, especially if the way to play it adapted from its common/general rules.

In Brazil there is the game of the jaguar ("Jogo da Onça" in Brazilian) which is a game originating from indigenous peoples that is usually played on the ground, on the ground and the pieces can be simple stones where one of the pieces represents the jaguar and the another 14 (which need to be equal to each other) represent the dogs.

This is a strategy game for only two players, where one of them will act as a jaguar and have the objective of capturing the opponent's pieces, similar to the game of Checkers.

The other player acts with the dogs and aims to corner the jaguar and leave it unable to move.

In fact this was the only typical game from my country that I could remember, I'm not sure if it could attract any audience on an online betting site, even because it's a very old game, few people know it, much less who play in casinos.

I'm not sure of the specific mechanics in this game of ayo but there is a similar version of this game here in our country. It also involves a carved wood and either small rounded shells or marbles or stones or seeds as the pieces. But this is seldom played already. This used to be a pastime game, way back when there wasn't computers, cell phones, PSP, and internet yet. Many children probably don't know this local game already. But I think this is also offered in smart phone versions. But I doubt there is a casino that offers this. I guess it's probably because it's not that popular or perhaps it's not really a game designed for casinos.

Thanks for sharing, I love learning about other cultures and was glad to read about another local game from on of the replies on here.  I'm not sure there's any sort of local game in my area that could be turned in to a game that could be used on a gambling platform.  The only local games I can think of that I grew up with are pretty universal in nature. 

[traderethereum]

I don't think casinos will include local games in their platform because online casinos already have default gambling games that they "must" have.
But if later these traditional games are included in online casinos, I don't know whether to be happy or happy or normal.
I may need to adjust myself first because the rules can be different from those in traditional games.
I wouldn't play it very often, considering it's a game of 2 people competing against each other and only those who can play it well will win.
Maybe I still prefer the gambling games that I usually play.

I don't think said game is applicable, if this is the same game on my mind it should be possible to technically win the game by counting, even if the difficulty is ramped up since you're against a player, counting would still heavily influence the game, and that leads to describe it as a skill-based game instead of a luck based one. It can be fun as a small part of a big festival, as a temporary one, but in a permanent case like in casinos? I don't think it's going to fit.

I think it's good to be in a casino but as I've said it will be difficult to attract players.

If this is the same game I'm thinking, it should be rather similar (if not exactly the same) as the game OP is talking about. It was a rather fun past time as a child indeed but I think the game isn't rather well-known even back then, afaik only a few of my childhood friends even knew about it.

[Fundamentals Of]

There are a variety of card games in my locality that are also not found in casinos. There's so many of them. And there are also a number of board games that are also not in casinos. When I was a kid, I used to be play a lot of checkers, games of the generals, scrabble, even snakes and ladders, and others. They're all not in casinos also. I'm not sure if some of them are actually in casinos already, but I never encountered them. My observation is that casinos have the usual casino games.

I thought this is the only way to play the game but OP said that it was played with 6 players and it got me more confused. I played this also in my childhood(2 decades ago) which is the first one to fill the last hole with marbles or stones. Sad to say in this generation most of them is they already forgotten it or don't know what is these games. It is usually played for fun at reunions and also kills your time around 3 pm. I also haven't seen any online games about this (or I just haven't researched it) but definitely will play it again.

It's very rare for a local game to be included in a casino that uses game providers like Evolution should be added by game providers to for it be added to casinos and game providers prefer to only install games, gamblers are most familiar with but if there are local games that gain popularity and there is a huge request from casino operators then they will likely add it, only dedicated casino for that game can we see a local game and they usually for local gamblers.

[TravelMug]

Yes, this is similar to Philippines sungka and we have played it when I was a child back in the days. It's fun and enjoyable but I doubt that casino's can simply include in their platform because they don't know if there are players obviously.

So probably it will continue to be just local and again past from generation to generation and it shouldn't be included in a gambling platform. Let it be just be preserved.

[Solosanz]

Nope, local game will just attract people who came from that's country only, usually the other people wouldn't interested since they think it's a weird game or don't have any experience to play it. So it's make sense how almost all casinos only add international games like slots, sports bookie, live casino and the other popular luck based games. If I want to gamble and playing my local game, it's better for me to play it with my friends.

[Strongkored]

In my place it's called congklak and it's only played by women and children, it's an interesting game because we can interact, so I think it's a little impossible to see that game will be in an online casino, maybe if someone will develop the algorithm it so that this game is not PvP but PvH, but it will be difficult to win because players are difficult to beat the house.

[Mr. Magkaisa]

   - In this day and age, online casino has become trending where most of the social media influencers are hired as endorsers of their online casino, but I have not seen any crypto gambling promoted by well-known social media influencers. , if there are only a few of them.

Now, the sungka that you are talking about seems to be a little bit different, now if it is used for gambling I think it will not be a good strategy to attract many gamblers in my opinion, because it is still more thrilling to play other games like of Poker, blackjack and more.

It is a board game in which two persons can play in a competition but a home or for fun 2,3,4 or six players can play it.

This game did not start as a board game, I remember then as kids, that we  usually dug holes into the ground and used the seeds from palm kernels to play this game. Our fingers and palms always got dirty from digging and playing, and it took some time to get set for the game from digging and gathering the seeds to play the game with, but it was a fun game. We couldn't play when it rained because the holes are dug on the ground, we couldn't play in the evenings and night as well as the game could not be played indoors, anytime we wanted to play, new holes had to be dug and we had to play only at convenient times in the day. In a bid to navigate all that, I guess it is were the idea to make the game into a board game originated. Very happy seeing our very old local game discussed here.
