Digital adaptation of the ancient Egyptian game Senet for two players, featuring authentic 3D replicas of boards displayed in museums. Enjoy family-friendly, turn-based strategy rooted in history.
Step back into ancient Egypt and experience Senet, the legendary game once played by pharaohs, brought to life in 3D.
Senet combines strategy and chance in a timeless race across the board. Outsmart your opponent, survive the whims of fate, and reach the afterlife.
Challenge yourself, a friend, or an AI opponent to a game of turn-based strategy and luck as you navigate the game's unique 30-square layout.
Your goal is to ascend all of your pawns off the board before your opponent to reach Sekhet-Aaru, the kingdom of Osiris, known as the Field of Reeds.
Our boards authentically replicate those found in ancient tombs and exhibited in museums around the world, and feature four throwsticks or two knucklebones as dice, along with the cone-shaped and spool-shaped pieces.
This version of Senet uses the well-known Kendall's rules, allowing players to make strategic move combinations. The rules are simple and easy to learn.
Ideal for fans of historical board games, ancient Egypt, or anyone seeking a quick yet engaging challenge.
Modern Enhancements: Designed for players of all skill levels, from beginners to seasoned pros. Senet is truly family-friendly, playable with children as young as seven, yet challenging enough to keep adults interested too.
Small Campaign: Twelve games against an AI opponent to unlock all the boards and achievements at your pace.
Custom Mode: Allows custom games, local multiplayer, shorter games using 5 pieces instead of 7, and mixing all unlocked game pieces.
3 Difficulty Modes: Easy provides a more forgiving AI. Normal provides the most balanced and enjoyable experience, allowing players to face reasonable challenges without becoming too frustrated or bored. Hard hides the UI, creating a more immersive and authentic experience that forces players to rely on instincts and memory.
Controls: You can play using a mouse, gamepad, or even the Steam Deck touchscreen.
Two View Modes: Play with a classic static top-view or a dynamic view that follows your ankh-shaped cursor.
Senet was created as a way to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the discovery of Tutankhamun's Tomb on November 4, 1922.
His tomb contained no fewer than four Senet boards. The boy king's treasures spurred renewed interest in Ancient Egypt, and after a century, it is still one of the most famous discoveries in modern archaeology.
