Ayo Game, The Popular Traditional Board Game From Nigeria Goes Android

'Ayo' like we call it in this part of the world is a popular strategy board game that originated in Nigeria and now it is played mostly in West
Africa now goes 'Andriod'...it has been released as an Android application by Nigerian app developing company, "Taytronik".

The Ayo game had been a successful  digital game because a released version for computers. But this time its going mobile, it has been developed in single or two player modes which makes it interactive and realistic for players as it normally requires. It involves basically three levels of difficulty (easy,medium and hard) depending on your understanding of the game and you can select if you want to start or allow the computer to start. For a two player game, there’s a rotated view allowing people to stay on opposite sides of the playboard and play comfortably.

Once you click ‘Play’, your Android device is turned into an Ayo playboard and you can then interact with your screen by tapping to pickup the seeds and dropping them by tapping on each house or pot. If you can’t finish up the game, you can always save it and resume later.

The game looks quite interactive, engaging and for sure it will be addictive when played from your phone or tablet device.

The Ayo game app is currently available for Android devices and can be downloaded from the Android Market for N151.88k (about $1) and the Amazon Appstore for ($0.99).

Unfortunately, i do not own this device but i hope a version for Nokia Smart phones will be released soon.:)
