About this game

Great chess simulator that tries to combine real chess and Archon, where living creatures fight among themselves. The rules of chess apply to moving the pieces and their attacks but there are significant differences. First of all, there is no “check” in the game, because the goal of the game is to defeat the enemy king directly in battle, so being in “check” position does not mean victory. The second difference is that here a pawn cannot become a queen on reaching the other side of the field: it will turn into the last list piece.
