It's The Royal Game of Ur. I wish I could say I designed the game, but I only physically constructed this one. I build games for my children each Christmas, and this was one of them. More details on the game are here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Game_of_Ur

You're a shoe-in for the dad of the year.

Aw, thanks! I love doing it, and I think it's such a nice change from the electronics that they get everywhere else. This year is going to be a 3D chess set, with subterranean, land, and air levels.

Are you psychic or have we met or wtf is it and how'd you know I'm a chess player?

I can't make this up.

I had a fabrication shop back in early 2000's called Black Magic.

Too funny! Maybe the good magic joojoo wore off on you and spread through osmosis through the internets!
