Thai Chess: A Digital Adaptation of a Classic
Thai Chess, played on an 8x8 board, shares similarities with classical chess but features key distinctions. The initial setup mirrors classical chess, except for two crucial differences: the white queen starts on e1 and the white king on d1 (each king is to the left of its queen from the player's perspective); and pawns are positioned on the third rank (white) and sixth rank (black).
King, rook, and pawn movements largely align with classical chess rules: the king moves one square in any direction, the rook moves any number of unoccupied squares horizontally or vertically, and the pawn moves one square forward and captures diagonally forward. The game offers various play modes: against AI, locally with another person, or online against opponents.
Piece Movements:
- King: Moves as in European chess. Castling is not permitted.
- Queen: Moves only one square diagonally.
- Rook: Moves any number of unoccupied squares horizontally or vertically.
- Bishop: Moves one square diagonally in any direction or one square forward vertically.
- Knight: Moves in an "L" shape (two squares in one direction, then one square perpendicularly), as in European chess.
- Pawn: Moves one square forward vertically and captures one square diagonally forward, as in European chess. Pawns promote only to queens upon reaching the sixth rank.
Victory Conditions:
Checkmating the opponent's king wins the game. A stalemate results in a draw.
