‘Board games are beautiful’
A magazine about the craft, creativity and community of board games. Top fact, the magazine is named after (according to editor Dan Jolin) 'the oldest known board game, dating back to around 3,000 BCE in Egypt.'

Celebrated by the magazine's mascot Nubie on the lovely pink front cover, inside editor Dan Jolin reflects: ‘Like a game night that's over in what feels like minutes, creating the past 18 issues of Senet has surely proven the old maxim that time flies when you're having fun.’
To mark the occasion, there's a round up of the all the Top Choice games chosen over the past five years, as well as a special feature on the games of Ancient Egypt, which includes the magazine's namesake.
