About this game

If you play more than one of my Ancient Games, I suggest you delete the individual apps and install the main one (Ancient Games). It will allow you to play them all and save disk storage.

The past is full of fascinating board games that haves been mostly forgotten. The Ancient Games collection aims to resurrect them as a meticulously crafted mix between what a player wants from an historical game and what he/she expects of a modern application.

-Play against the IA, friends and random players from around the world.
-Play Online & Offline.
-Multiple collectibles : boards, game pieces, dice, nameplates, etc.
-Challenges (Fun rule variants)
-Free cloudsave across the collection : your progress in one game is available in all the others.
-Much more features to come!
-Languages : English, French, Portuguese, Italian, Arabic, Spanish, German, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese and Russian.

Currently, the collection is comprised of four games : the Royal Game of Ur, Senet, XII Scripta and Puluc, but 40 games are in the works!
Each game will be added to the Ancient Games app and will have its own individual app as well.

I used to love the Game of Ur. It was easy to start and play. This is now very confusing. Why do we need names? We never did before. When I tried playing even normal difficulty, there were only two playing pieces on the board, mine and the opponent's playing piece. Where's the rest of the playing pieces? I'm sorry, but I prefer the old version.

It's super fun to play, but if it is set to "hard" the dice rolls are no longer random and are stacked against you. If the developer wants it to be more challenging, they could have made your opponents choose better moves, or they could have added any number of the variant rules of this game to make it harder, but don't mess with the truly random dice rolls. If there was another app with as much atmosphere but random dice rolls, I would certainly switch.

Update: It appears to be a hiccup in the ad engine display. One out of every twenty or so games seems to successfully load an ad, then things progress normally. ------- Fun enough, but after every game, I have to force close the app. The words "Game Over" appear, then fade out. Then the blank background image is the only thing shown until force closed.
