Khet: The Laser Game

Players command Egyptian-themed pieces on a board that contains two low-power lasers built into its frame. Pieces include a pharaoh and various mirrored and non-mirrored units; mirrors deflect the laser beam at right angles. Players alternate moving a single piece or rotating a mirrored piece, then fire their laser to trace the beam across the board. The beam reflects off mirrors and can eliminate any piece it strikes; the objective is to protect one's own pharaoh while maneuvering so the opponent's pharaoh becomes hit by the laser. Gameplay emphasizes spatial planning, piece positioning, and anticipating beam paths.
