Embeli is a mancala game of the Boa (also known as Baboa or Bwa) who play it in the area of Buta in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Libuali, their language, is spoken by about 200,000 people. Embeli is probably the same game as Ambala, which is played by the Bali near Bafwasende. It seems to be related to Imbelece. The seeds of the Ngola tree (Pictantus makombo) are used as counters.
