Learn to play the Pente Grammai game, an ancient greek game.

Five Lines (Greek: πέντε γραμμαί, romanized: pente grammai) is the modern name of an ancient Greek tables game. Two players each move five counters on a board with five lines, with moves likely determined by the roll of a die. The winner may have been the first one to place their pieces on the central "sacred line". No complete description of the game exists, but there have been several scholarly reconstructions, including Schädler's and Kidd's.

This game has been developed by NOTsoNOISY Guillaume Reymond for an exhibit in the "Musée Suisse du Jeu", a game museum in Switzerland
