The Royal Game Of Ur (hardnorse)

The ancient royal game of strategy and skill. Outmaneuver your opponent and guide all your pieces to the final basket to win the game.  Skilled AI anticipate your moves and foil your tactics. This is the full game and contains 4 virtual opponents or play against another human on the same machine.

This version of the game was published with a replica of the royal gaming board by the British Museum during the late 1990s. It uses the RC Bell path around the board. 

• 0 - move 0 squares - i.e. miss a go.
• 1 - move 1 square
• 2 - move 2 squares
• 3 - move 3 squares
• 4 - move 4 squares

• 5. If a counter lands on a rosette, throw the dice again (and again if another rosette is landed upon). The same piece need not be moved on the additional throw.
• 6. Pieces can be moved onto the board at any stage of the game as long as the square that is moved to upon the first turn is vacant.
• 7. A player must always move a counter if it is possible to do so but if it is not possible, the turn is lost.
• 8. Exact throws are needed to bear pieces off the board.
