Oxford Games Ltd, The Hieroglyphs Game.
The game is missing 1 black token out of 20, rest of the game pieces are complete.
Involving both skill and chance, the game is an entertaining introduction to one of the oldest and most beautiful of written languages.
Whilst no previous knowledge of this ancient script is required, play is designed to help you recognise a range of more commonly found hieroglyphs - making future viewing of Egyptian exhibits even more exciting!
The game involves moving a scarab beetle around the board in an effort to 'collect' the signs necessary to 'spell' a given hieroglyphic word. Whilst attempting to do this, you are at the same time trying to thwart your opponents' efforts to complete their words.
The colourful game board displays the 24 signs of the basic hieroglyphic alphabet, plus a small selection of the seven hundred other signs used by Ancient Egyptian scribes.
