What do you get when you combine lasers with classic strategy? The Khet Laser Game!

Welcome to the world of Khet! In this deflexion game, players alternate turns moving Egyptian-themed pieces having two, one or no mirrored surfaces. All four types of pieces (pharaoh, obelisk, pyramid and djed column) can either move one square forward, back, left, right, or diagonal, or can stay in the same square and rotate by a quarter twist. Each turn ends by firing one of the lasers built into the board. The laser beam bounces from mirror to mirror; if the beam strikes a non-mirrored surface on any piece, it is immediately removed from play. The ultimate goal is to illuminate your opponent's pharaoh, while shielding yours from harm!

One of five finalists for the 2007 Toy of the Year award and a Mensa Select Award winner.

Recommended ages 8-99.
