I Saw It First! Egypt

Ancient Egypt/mummies are perennially popular with kids

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Three hundred ancient Egyptians — from gods and goddesses to pharaohs and sphinxes — populate the board of this game. Pull a counter from the box featuring one of the 300 characters in this game and be the first to spot that character on the board!

Coming in a triangular box with a hexagonal board (designed to prevent players from being able to remember where certain characters are), this game features charming illustrations by Caroline Selmes. Simple to understand but addictive to play, this fun and challenging game will delight adults and children alike.
