## Description

Product description The Senet board we sell here is a based on those found in various Egyptian tombs including those of Ramses III and Tutankhamen. The hieroglyphics on the sides of the Senet board are reproductions of hieroglyphics found on a 3,000 year old papyrus and describe the "wandering of the soul in the underworld". It is very nicely crafted and comes with genuinely shaped pieces and binary lots (ancient dice). The board is well made from hardwood and nicely decorated with clearly printed symbols and squares in contrasting colours. There is a pullout drawer for convenient storage of playing pieces - such a drawer also featured in many of the Senet boards found in ancient Egypt. Approx. Dimensions: Board: 410 x 130 x 52mm Board: 16.1x5.1x2 inch Safety Warning Choking Hazard. Not a Toy. For Ages 15 and older.

Review: Great game! - I brought this for my husband as one of his 40th birthday gifts. He is an avid board game player and I was a little worried it might be too simple or just not fun. I needn't have worried! My husband absolutely loves it! More so than some of his more expensive gifts! It is a great game played by the instructions provided, with both luck and tatics playing a part. It takes about 10-20 minutes per game. It arrived promptly and in good condition. The board itself has a bit of a homemade feel which rather adds to its charm. Highly recommend it!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you use the sticks to tell how far to go?**
A: The number of flat sides showing is the number you move. So, if you toss the sticks and get 2 flat sides up and 2 dark painted sides up, you move two spaces. If you get 3 flat sides up and 1 dark painted side up, you move three spaces. Now, if you get all 4 dark painted sticks up, you move six spaces. There is no five, in case you were wondering. :)

**Q: Does game come with instructions?**
A: Yes, ity does.  However, go to YouTube and enter "Senet" in the search box, and several options will pop up with instructions for the game.  Good luck.

**Q: Missing a green silo when game opened-can we get the missing piece?**
A: The only option which is logical is to contact the manufacturer directly.  Another option would be to make one or find a hobbyist who could.

**Q: can this game be played by one person by themselves?**
A: It's a two person game, but I have played against myself.
