I think the concept is good, but I just wish Bridge Street’s website did a better job of selling them. There should be better images, and video demonstrations.

A cool laser game with an Egyptian fire theme is re-branded this season as Khet, the Egyptian word for fire. It’s chess meets checkers meets laser tag! Mirrors need to be arranged on the board in such a way that a laser is reflected to hit your opponents Pharaoh piece.
