When the Egyptian folk hero Setne broke into the tomb of Prince Naneferkaptah to steal a magic book, the prince's mummy challenged him to senet, a board game popular with both Egyptian gods and humans. The more Setne lost the game, the more the floor enveloped him. However, he eventually used magic amulets to break free.
