Features & Capabilities

Can you master this WEIRD chess game? It's chess, but with a rule change: pieces can only capture the same type of piece. Kings are excluded. Mate puzzles included!

A Weird Chess Game is chess with one capture rule changed.

THE WEIRD RULE Pieces can only capture enemy pieces of the same type. • Pawns capture pawns • Knights capture knights • Queens capture queens • And so on

Everything else is normal chess: check, checkmate, castling, en passant, and promotion all work the usual way. That one capture rule changes tactics completely. Positions that look safe in normal chess may not be safe here — and the opposite is true too.

PLAY YOUR WAY • vs Computer — offline CPU from Newcomer (250–600) to Master (2200+) • Pass & Play — two players on one device • Time controls from 1-minute bullet to 15-minute rapid, or no clock • Flip the board, move guides, premoves, and post-game move review
