The oldest game in the world. It originated in ancient Mesopotamia from the city of Ur, where the game for two players was played roughly 5,000 years ago. However, it was gradually forgotten. That's why you probably won't know it either. Not so long ago, on one of the ancient clay tablets its rules were identified and so now you can play it too. It is a very simple and dynamic game. In ancient times, people in Mesopotamia believed that the game had the ability to help players predict their fate. So try your luck too! Stone or wood is used to make the game, which otherwise fits on any small table. But Juraj made it out of cloth and it takes a whole room to make it. Come and play the biggest version of the world's oldest board game.
