Sankore: The Pride of Mansa Musa

Sankore: The Pride of Mansa Musa invites players to take on the role of esteemed scholars shaping the future of the prestigious University of Sankoré in 14th-century Timbuktu. Tasked by Mansa Musa to spread knowledge across West Africa, you must manage your own school within the grand madrasa, enrolling and graduating students, developing your curriculum, and filling the great library with invaluable books.

As the university takes shape, you will advance knowledge in four key disciplines—theology, law, mathematics, and astronomy—while carefully navigating academic competition. Once construction is complete, the empire’s evolving priorities will determine how your scholarly contributions are valued, impacting your final score.

In the dedicated solo mode, you will challenge a distinguished automated scholar who, though less flexible than a human opponent, is relentless in their pursuit of academic excellence.
