WE Games Senet Egyptian Board Game

Introduced this to my students (10th grade) to give them a feel of Ancient Egypt and they loved it! Fun, based on strategy and luck of the dice rolls.

Interesting game, but grandkids aren't too interested.

When opening it, I immediately smelled the wooden material. The tile spaces and overall state of the game board is smooth, and within the drawer are the player pieces, game guide booklet, painted sticks as dice, and a die if you decide not to use the sticks. And as far as I can tell, it accurately replicates a senet board. Overall, an excellent product and sure to be appreciated by an Egypt enthusiast.

A very nice wood board with equally nice decoration.No one knows the exact rules for senet, so the instructions are more of an educated guess than authoritative. I found a couple issues with the provided rule set, but a quick search online found alternate rules. I combined the two and came up with a pretty solid game.Like a simplified Backgammon (backgammon is derived from senet) it's very easy to pick up.More than a board game to the ancients, senet had cultural and religious significance. I just find it fascinating to connect across 5000 years this way.The 'stick-dice' are novel, but one can replace them with regular dice, simply ignoring any five that is rolled. There are no fives in senet.Overall a nice board and interesting game.

I bought this for my brother on his birthday, and he really loves it! We've played it several times already with different members of the family, ranging from 8 years and up. It's fun and easy to learn. It's a bit like Parcheesi, but much less aggressive and competitive, and has several interesting twists that really make it unique. I would highly recommend this game!

Senet is a game I grew up with! I love this game, it's different and unique looking! This makes a great gift if you want something different and special! The winner is by process of eliminating the pieces you have on the board. But game play can be interesting because the different symbols have different meanings that can slow tou down! I love the ancient Egytian world! Great Christmas gift as well, I highly recommend for game night with friends as well!

Have played this game on the computer for a while now, and it's nice to have it so I can play with my son or someone else face to face. Easy enough to learn the rules, and nuanced enough to hold interest for a long time.

Crafted very well and the whole family has enjoyed playing

The product is great except for the fact that one of the red panels with the symbols was badly smudged, which ruined the look of it. The suppliers must've known this, and I'm very annoyed that they sent it anyway. Have they not heard of quality control?

Good quality, useful storage drawer.

It is the same which describes online. We play each day now! My son loves it!

Beautiful game. Wish there were seven pieces for each player as many others have

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!
