The Royal Game of Ur

The Royal Game of Ur

Description

HAVE YOU EVER WANTED TO BE LIKE AN ANCIENT BABYLONIAN? no?... oh... WELL NOW YOU CAN!!! With The Royal Game of Ur, a 5000 year old board game, invented by the Babylonians in Mesopotamia, and played for thousands of years until it was forgotten in favor of other games. It was rediscovered with a tablet describing the rules, making it the oldest board game that we still know the rules to today. It is a very fun game with a lot of history. Games are often really close and unpredictable until the end. Strategy is a big component too, not just luck. Storage space for small pieces inside the board. The rules are attached as a text file. More information about the game can be found in this great video: https://youtu.be/WZskjLq040I
