About the application:

Senet is an ancient Egyptian race mini game and the predecessor of our modern Backgammon. The oldest known form of the mini game is shown in a painting from the tomb of Hesy (circa 2686-2613 BCE). A lot of pictures of the mini game and artifacts have been discovered and are displayed in Museums around the globe. The commonness of these finds indicates that the mini game was very famous in its time. The main adversaries in Senet are the Spools and the Pyramids. These pawns follow a path from their begin positions to the House of Horus in an inverted 'S'. The user moving all of his pawns off the board first wins. Fields on the Senet board are called houses. Some of these have unique significance and are adorned with icons like the Ankh symbol. Instead of dice flattened sticks are used. Each stick has a bright side and a dark side. Every bright side is a point. If only dark sides are showing the user is awarded 5 points. When a 1, 4, or 5 is thrown the user gets other turn. When moving into a field occupied by an enemy, the pieces switch territories. If, however, the opponent's pawn is part of a row of two or more, it cannot be beaten. It is possible to 'jump' over an enemy if it isn't part of a row of 3 pieces or more. 3 pieces are considered a block and are an necessary strategic tool. Through symbology Senet tips at the afterlife as seen from an Egyptian point of view. If one's piece is beaten on one of the latest three fields or the jump over the House of Water is not successful one moves back to the house of Rebirth. In such the mini game alludes to reincarnation and the adventure of the dead. Senet Deluxe is a truly special tactic mini game. It features good animation, a soundtrack, an clever adversary, enforceable backwards moves, highlighting for acceptable moves, mini game stats and online assist. Be prepared to spend a lot of hours with the most famous mini game of the antiquity. For more screenshots and a few videos of the application in action, please visit the site indicated below.
