// We travel back thousands of years to find out what the very first board game was... from ancient Egypt's Senet to Mesopotamia's Royal Game of Ur (the oldest game with surviving rules). We explain what "abstract" games are and how later "themed" games added stories and characters. Then we jump to the modern board game rebirth that began in 1990s Germany with titles like Settlers of Catan, which helped spark today's explosion of creative family games. //
