Description
This game can be fun for both children and adults as it provides an adaptation of chess that makes for a quick and exciting game. Each player starts out with one piece on the game board and draws a card to see what piece they receive next. When a player can attack an opponent’s king with three pieces at once then they win! A round will only take around five minutes, so players can quickly rotate in and out and have many fast-paced matches.
