This modern two-player-game is inspired by The Royal Game of Ur. The board is a replica of the board of The Royal Game of Ur. However, in this game each player has 9 unmarked black or white pieces, respectively, and the game is played using two standard (i.e. modern) four sided dice.

In turns, players throw the two dice, and then enter one or two pieces, or move one or two pieces. The pieces enters the board at the specific start for each player, and then moves along a specified path from start to end, where the pieces are moved off the board. The movements of the pieces across the board (with special rules for the rosettes) as well as the rules for sending an opponent’s piece back to start reminds of (but are substantially different from) those listed for The Royal Game of Ur.

The winner is the player who first gets all his/her nine pieces moved all the way from start to end and off the board.
