About game

Unusual Chess is an excellent game that hones your strategic abilities, logical thinking, and visual memory. Dive into our four distinctive game modes! **Modes:** - **Classic:** For those who appreciate tradition. Enjoy a pure strategic duel against a smart AI or a friend without any shortcuts. - **Fisher's Chess:** Frustrated with memorized openings? The pieces on the back rank are scrambled each time. Prepare to think on your feet from the get-go! - **Horde Mode:** Prefer strength in numbers? Lead the Horde with three rows of pawns versus the opponent's standard army! Overwhelm your foe with an avalanche or go down swinging—but make it a spectacle. - **Random Position:** The game begins when you least expect it! The board sets a random position, plunging you straight into the action without warm-up. Choose to battle an AI with adjustable difficulty or challenge a friend on the same device. Plan your moves carefully, execute stunning checkmates, and relish every game!

How to play

Playing Unusual Chess is easy and intuitive — you can move pieces by clicking or dragging them, whatever you prefer. How to move: - Clicking: left-click on a piece to see all possible moves, then click on the target square to make the move. - Dragging: press and hold the left mouse button on a piece, drag it to where you want it, and release the button — your move is done! Special actions: - Castling: protect your king by moving it two squares towards the rook, and the game will handle the castling automatically. - Pawn promotion: when a pawn reaches the opposite end of the board, it turns into a queen. To start the game: go to the main menu, pick one of the four modes, choose your colour, and decide who your opponent will be — the clever AI or a friend sitting next to you on the same device.
