AI Reconstructs Rules of Ancient Roman Board Game Ludus Coriovalli

A board game believed to have been played in ancient Rome, Ludus Coriovalli, has been reconstructed by AI from a limestone artifact. The rules were unknown, but AI simulations of 130 configurations matched wear patterns on the artifact. The game is now playable for free in a browser, with players controlling hounds and hares.
