1 Senet is a ancient Egyptian board game.

2 To play, you’ll need four knuckle bones

3 As your counters, you’ll need 7 cones and 7 spheres

4 You’ll need a board with 30 squares

5 You’ll need two players

6 In this one, you’ll have two turns because you have two uncolored sides up
Rules throw your knuckle bones -Each player throws the counting sticks to determine their move~ - 1 uncolored side up- 1 move - 2 uncolored sides up- 2 moves - 3 uncolored sides up- 3 moves - All uncolored sides up- 4 moves - All colored sides up- 5 moves

7 The player that throws a 1 starts the game

8 Rules A piece can jump other pieces
Rules A piece can jump other pieces. A piece can land on the opponent's piece, and swap places with it

9 Rules A backwards move is possible only if no forward move is available. If a player can't make a move, they must "pass“ or ‘Jump”.

10 Rules To clear a piece from the board, throw any number from square 30 or exact throws from squares 28 or 29. A throw of five clears a piece from square 26. Clear all pieces from the board to win.

11 Danger and Safe squares
The birds , kneeing people, and the lute are safe squares. The safe squares mean if you land on a danger square you don’t move, or when someone lands on you don’t have to switch places with them. Danger squares mean you have to go back to the beginning of the board.

12 Hieroglyphics On my Senet board, I added a couple of hieroglyphics. Hieroglyphics were used as the ancient Egyptians alphabet.
