Royal Game Of Ur

Discover one of the oldest board games ever unearthed — the Royal Game of Ur, played in ancient Mesopotamia over 4,500 years ago. This digital edition brings the game back to life using the Finkel rules — reconstructed by British Museum curator Irving Finkel from archaeological research.

HOW TO PLAY
