Description

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

How to Play

Move your pieces according to their individual movement rules. The King can only travel one square at a time within the palace. Guards must stay within diagonal moves within the palace. Elephants move exactly two squares diagonally and cannot jump over pieces. Horses move one square straight and then one square diagonally, unless obstructed by adjacent pieces. Rooks move any number of squares straight, acting as powerful attackers. Catapults move like chariots but must require a screen piece to capture exactly one piece. Soldiers move forward one square and attack sideways after crossing the river. Take the opponent's general to win the game. Strategize your moves carefully to defeat the computer opponent.
