Khet 2.0

Khet 2.0 is fun and easy to learn because all the pieces move in the same way. The object of the game
is to illuminate your opponents Pharaoh by bouncing your laser beam off the mirrored pieces and around
the playing field. You can learn to play in minutes!
Set up the pieces in one of the three starting positions given on

the back of the instruction booklet. Start with the CLASSIC configuration.
As you become more familiar with the game, you can invent your own
starting configurations to create new possibilities and challenges.
If the player decides NOT to rotate his or her Sphinx, then: a turn
consists of moving any one piece one square in any direction
(including diagonally) or of rotating a piece a quarter turn (90
degrees) in either direction without changing squares. A piece
cannot be moved and rotated on the same turn or rotated more
than a quarter twist on one turn.
Silver moves first. Players alternate turns, with each player moving
only his/her own pieces. All the pieces, including Pharaohs, can
be moved.
Each player has a Sphinx which contains a laser. It is not a playing
piece and cannot be eliminated from play. It is located in its special
corner space. One a players turn the Sphinx can be rotated to
point the laser down either the first column or the first row. This
optional rotation of the Sphinx is done INSTEAD of moving a piece
according to the rules which follow: if a player chooses to rotate the
Sphinx as his/her turn, it must be rotated before the head is pushed
and the laser is fired.
No red piece, including a Scarab, can move into any square

containing a silver Ankh. No silver piece, including a Scarab, can
move into any square containing a red Eye of Horus. These
squares are located along portions of the edges of the board.
Except for the Scarab, no piece can move into a square occupied
by another piece of either color.

A Scarab can move into an adjacent square occupied by a Pyramid

or an Anubis of either color; the Pyramid or Anubis then goes to the
square from which the Scarab started. In other words, the Scarab
can swap places with an adjacent Pyramid or Anubis, but not with
a Pharaoh or another Scarab piece. Neither piece rotates during
the swap.
If the laser beam stops on the front side of an Anubis piece, the
Anubis is not removed from the board and the turn is overthis
piece is impervious to a hit on its front. If the laser beam strikes a
side or back of an Anubis, that piece is removed from the board.
When a player has moved, by either rotating the Sphinx or moving a

piece, he/she presses the head of the Sphinx sending a laser beam
around the field. Once the player removes his/her hand from the piece
moved during a turn, the move cannot be taken back and the laser
must be fired. Players may not test where the beam will go by firing
the laser before completing their moves! (When the laser beam hits
one of the mirrors, it will always make a left or right hand turn of 90
degrees, as shown in the diagrams. The beam always travels along
the rows and columns; as long as the pieces are properly positioned
in their squares, the laser beam will never go off at weird angles).
The laser is fired only once at the end of a players turn.The turn is
over whether or not a piece is hit.
The game ends when a beam illuminates a Pharaoh. The winner is
the player whose Pharaoh wasnt hit. A player who illuminates his
or her own Pharaoh is out of luck.
If the laser beam stops on a non-mirrored surface of a Pyramid that

piece is removed from the board.
If the same board arrangement appears for a third time in the

same game, i.e., the same pieces of the same colors occupy the
same squares in the same orientations, the player making the
next move can declare a draw.

Unlike chess or checkers, The Laser Game:

Khet 2.0 begins with the pieces spread over the
board. Many different starting configurations
will give interesting and enjoyable games. The
three configurations shown have been tested
extensively. They offer plenty of oppurtunities
for skillful strategic maneuvers (and are not as
complicated as they look). We recommend that
you start with the CLASSIC setup. Then, as
you become more experienced, try DYNASTY
and IMHOTEP for new strategic possibilities.
As you become more expert, use your own
creativity to design new starting positions!
Use this setup if this is your first time to play Khet.
A variation on the CLASSIC setup that opens up

new defensive possibilties.
A setup with an immediate balance of offense

and defense that develops quickly.
How To Install/Change Sphinx Piece Batteries
Khet is powered using two standard model: CR2032 coin

batteries. There is one battery placed directly under the
removable bottom cover of the Sphinx piece. To insert/change
the batteries turn the sphinx over and remove the screw
followed by the plastic cover. A flat head screw driver helps to
easily remove the battery as shown.
Battery Care Warnings
Use only the recommended batteries or equivalent (volts and size). Install battery with the + terminal facing the removable cover. Remove exhausted batteries from the product. Do not short-circuit supply terminals.
