App Store Description

Senet is a board game from ancient Egypt. The earliest representation of senet is dated to c. 2620 BCE from the Mastaba of Hesy-Re. The game fell out of use following the Roman period, and its original rules are the subject of conjecture.

The order of the squares is from 1 to 10 from left to right in the first row, from 11 to 20 from right to left in the second row and from 21 to 30 from left to right in the third row, this being the direction that they must follow the pieces of the two players when advancing, leaving their 10 pieces of the first row placed alternately and occupying this completely and part of the second in the 14-piece mode. There are several special boxes that are 15, 26, 27, 28, 29 and 30.

If a pawn lands on square 27, it must start from square 15.
In squares 26, 28, 29 and 30, in order to get a token, you must get the exact number.
Whenever a player gets a result of 1, 3 or 6, they still have a turn to play unless they cannot make a move or until they roll a 2 or 4.
