MOC: Senet - "The Game of Passing"

Recommended Posts

Other than Lego, one of my interests is ancient Egypt and how things haven't changed too much over the centuries. What better to demonstrate this, than a really old boardgame, Senet.

I have also added a couple of hidden extras into the box:

Very cool! I love all the Egyptian decorations you have added to the box like the pyramid and columns. Have you played it using the Lego board yet?

Heh. I remember playing this game in a level of Tomb Raider. I actually recall the rules and objective, as it took me forever to figure it out. :D

Nice build, instantly recognizable (if you know something about Ancient Egypt, of course :tongue: ). I once made a "real" version of this game with wood and clay figures, but I've never actually played the game myself. I searched my PC for pics of the Senet I made, but I couldn't find them immediatly. If I find them, I'll post one here. It's not LEGO, though, but then one can see how a "real" Senet looks, perhaps :classic: .
