Eye Of Horus Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Eye of Horus has quick instructions to learn, and initially we thought we'd be bored quickly. But you soon realize there are different strategies you can use, and some depend on who is the dealer. I love how you can capture cards using math. For example, if the pool has a 3 and 4, you can put down a 7 (3+4=7) to take all three cards. You can also do the reverse. If the pool has a 7 and 3, you can put down the four (7-3=4). You can also play a simplified version where you just match numbers, so this game is probably good for a family with small children - that way everyone can play.

Khet: The Laser Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)An excellent strategy game. Moves, including just rotation of a peice, van have serious consequences. The various configuration of starting positions keep any single strategy from consistently being successful. Just started using it and my son (age 7) and I are anxious to continue experimenting. No doubt the "cool factor" of a laser game has some effect in his enthusiasm, but he's learning strategy well. The company also quickly replaced a defective game without any problems. Highly recommended

Khet, The Laser Game, is played on an 80-square grid with a pharaoh and obelisk playing king and pawn, sort of, plus a mirrored pyramid and a wandering "djed," and it's chess-like, except for the lasers firing from the corners and bouncing off the mirrors. High tech, high action and trulyunique! Deflexion combines lasers with classic strategy for cool, smart...Zap! "Gotcha!" Satisfaction. Strategy at the Speed of Light... Each player begins with 12 Egyptian-themed pieces and a laser built into the board. The goal is to arrange your pieces so that the laser's beam bounces off their mirrored sides with the goal of illuminating opponent's pieces to eliminate them from the game. Players alternate turns moving the mirrored pieces around the playing field after which they fire their low powered laser diode in attempts to hit the opponent's Pharaoh. Deflexion is fun and easy to learn. Developed by mechanical engineering students and similar to chess, the challenge is in thinking about the playing field as a whole.

Khet - Eye of Horus Beamsplitter Expansion Pack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Khet is a great game, and this adds an extra layer of complexity. Great for young minds. I strongly recommend that you buy Khet, and a few months later, mix it up with this addition.

After you have begun to master the game with one laser, can you up the ante and handle three? The Eye of Horus beamsplitter piece splits one laser beam into two when hit by reflecting half of the beam and transmitting the other half right through for twice the strategy and excitement! With both pieces in play, the beam can be split twice blasting three lasers around the field with one push of the button! Each expansion pack includes two Eye of Horus Beamsplitter pieces, one silver and one red, and a full color booklet including brand new starting setups and science explanations.

An Ancient Game of Laser Tag - 2.0!Fun with lasersOn a recent archaeological expedition near the Great Pyramids of Egypt, the ThinkGeek R&D department made a yet another shocking discovery. The details will be published in a few months, but we couldn't wait to share what we found: the favorite game of the Ancient Egyptians was made of plastic and mirrors, and used lasers. Yes...lasers! It was called Khet. But we already made that discovery a few years ago. No, the new discovery is that the Ancient Egyptians also invented the game upgrade. Yes, we are so, so proud to present Khet 2.0 Laser Game.For those of you that loved the original Khet, you're gonna just flip for Khet 2.0, but we'll sum up game play for you who are new to the game. In Khet 2.0 Laser Game, there are four types of playing pieces, and two of them have mirrors. Game play is simple, and easy to learn, as there are only a few movement choices. The goal is to eliminate your opponent's Pharaoh. And, you eliminate the Pharaoh just like they did in olden times - by firing a red laser! And this is where Khet 2.0 kicks the game up a notch.In the original Khet, the lasers were part of the board. But in Khet 2.0, the lasers are built in to special Sphinx pieces that perch in the corner and can now rotate to change the angle of the beam (because of this change, the board is very slim and now built to travel)! Your laser is fired after your turn and bounces from mirrored piece to mirrored piece (always shooting off at a 90 degree angle). If the laser hits any piece on a non-reflective surface (with one exception we'll leave as a surprise), that piece is removed from play. If you eliminate your opponent's Pharaoh, you win. If you eliminate your own Pharaoh, you will be mocked for all time (because it is possible). Khet 2.0 Laser Game is the next generation of the best laser game of all time.Laser simulated in pictures to better give you an idea of game play.
