How it feels

A slow, thoughtful board game with a calm, historical atmosphere, where you throw sticks to move pieces across a grid.

What players say

Players describe Senet as a simple, luck-heavy board game that offers a glimpse into ancient Egyptian history but suffers from a braindead AI, no updates since launch, and suspected dice cheating by the computer. It is easy to beat even on the hardest difficulty, and the lack of online multiplayer limits replay to local play.
