Dark Chess

Description

Immerse yourself in the world of strategic thought and cunning tactics with Dark Chess. This captivating game is based on Chinese Chess but stands out with its unique rule set. Your pieces are pitted against those of your opponent. The crucial element is that only a higher level piece can capture a lower-level one. If all of your pieces are captured or you are unable to move any piece, it's game over.

How to Play

The game starts with both players having an equal number of pieces on the board. To play Dark Chess, first select a chess piece, then select an empty square to move it. Remember, only higher level chess can eat lower level chess, which gives an additional layer of strategic depth. The game ends when all of your chess pieces have been taken or you cannot make any more moves.

Tips and Tricks

In Dark Chess, strategic planning is key to victory. Choosing which piece to move and when is extremely important - remember not to leave your high-value chess pieces vulnerable as they can be quickly taken by your opponent's higher-level pieces. It’s also wise to avoid getting locked in a position where you cannot move any more pieces.
