The Royal Game of Ur is a 2-player strategy game that dates back to 2600 BC. Players race to get their pieces through the board before their opponent. Each move offers unique decisions and opportunities to take on your challenger. Our version is simplified for quicker play times and includes a beautifully designed board screen printed on soft fabric along with a travel-friendly drawstring bag.
Discovered in the royal tombs of Ur in ancient Mesopotamia, this game has survived nearly 5,000 years. Archaeological evidence shows it was played across the ancient world, from Sumerian palaces to Egyptian households. This modern recreation maintains the strategic depth that made it a favorite of ancient civilizations while streamlining the rules for contemporary players.
The game mechanics are straightforward enough to teach in 90 seconds, making it perfect for game nights, travel, or quick matches between friends. Despite its simple rules, each turn presents meaningful tactical choices. Players must decide whether to advance their pieces aggressively, play defensively, or capture opponent pieces when the opportunity arises. The dice-rolling element adds unpredictability while strategic positioning determines victory.
The screen-printed fabric board offers durability and portability that traditional rigid boards cannot match. The fabric resists wear and folds easily without damage. Game pieces are crafted from strong, durable materials designed to withstand repeated play. Everything stores neatly in the included cotton drawstring bag, making it ideal for camping trips, vacations, or simply keeping your game collection organized.
Each game includes comprehensive rules in four languages: English, Spanish, French, and German. This makes it an excellent choice for international households, language learners, or as a thoughtful gift for friends and family abroad.
