An AI opponent is available for this game!

This is a game of capturing for 2 players. The game is interesting in that the board is different every time. Try to capture 3 of any one of your opponents piece types, or 4 opposing pieces in total. This game has great potential for variation by adding different tiles and piece types/powers. Post your suggestions on the Wiki!

This implementation is currently testing Bishop and Rook tiles. Pieces on these tiles can currently move like the chess piece but cannot capture.

Cerulean 2 A real thinker. Scratches that Chess itch. The random board helps the replayability, but the sword has two edges.
nycavri 2 Fascinating game with tons of options every move.

Lexicon 1 The board is a different maze every game and you have to puzzle out the connections in order to attack and defeat your opponent.
Laurie_Menke 0 I really enjoyed this game the first few times I played, but then it just started feeling like too much work.

neilb -1 I started off really quite liking this, but the restriction on Bishop and Rook tiles not capturing is annoying and just feels broken. That's not mentioned in the rules either, which caught me out.
