These sets will contain everything you need to play Senet so are the best option for at-home play. Senet game boards are also quite small and portable so can be played on the go as well. A Senet board can look a little unusual because it is rectangular, not square like many other games. The board is made up of three rows of ten squares which are called houses. Now Seent boards can be designed in a number of ways but most follow the standard or traditional design scheme.

The designs in these squares can vary but will usually follow the same pattern. Senet is quite different from many games because it only has ten pieces sometimes called counters.

Unlike games like chess or checkers that have a lot more. Each player will have five pieces each of contrasting colors. Each set of five pieces will also be different in shape as well. There is a lot of variation to this but usually, five pieces will be tall and pointed while the others will be small and round.

In some variations of Senet, the pieces will be patterned as well. At least not in most traditional sets. In place of dice, it uses Senent Sticks which are thin wooden rectangular shapes.
