Description

Chinese Chess board game against a computer opponent. To win you need to capture the general of your opponent.

How to Play

Shift your pieces according to their specific movement rules. The Commander can only step one square at a time within the fortress. Advisors are limited to diagonal moves within the palace. Elephants move exactly two squares diagonally and cannot move to the opponent's side. Horses move one square straight and then one square diagonally, if not impeded by adjacent pieces. Chariots move any number of squares straight, making them powerful attackers. Cannons move like chariots but must capture by hopping over exactly one piece. Pawns move forward one square and gain new movement after crossing the river. Remove the opponent's general to win the game. Plan your moves carefully to outmaneuver the computer opponent.
