Wow! Too bad it’s already been Christmas – cause there’s not one thing I want more these days than this awesome laser boardgame! Get ready for KHET 2.0!
In the original game of 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.
It’s a bit like chess, only a lot, lot, LOT more geeky.
Get it from Thinkgeek for $34.99.
