Winner of nine national awards, this beautiful museum-quality board game is based on the ancient “city of splendor” built by the Maya many centuries ago in the tropical forest of Chiapas in Mexico. Learn amazing facts about their customs, myths and magic.

Experience the thrill and danger of a true archaeological expedition in 1925. Cross the ancient stone plaza if you can . . . Enter sacred temples if you dare . . . Danger is ever present . . . But beware the sacrificial cenote . . . And never, ever enter the sacred “ball court”!

Palenque features a large beautifully detailed playing board (29″x29″) as well as four cast figures (2½” high), eight decks of cards, expedition records, wooden dice, and more. Palenque also features 20,000 words describing the mystery of the ancient Mayan including their signs and symbols, myths and magic. Palenque is a game of strategy, bluffing, and memory.
