RULES:

The object of this single player puzzle game is to capture all the pieces on the card until only 1 piece remains. Choose a challenge card from the book and place it on the table. Place pieces on their matching icons. The icons are: King, queen, bishop, knight, rook, pawn. Now you must move the chess pieces in a way that every move results in a captured piece. All the pieces have their normal chess moves and are all the same color. For a refresher of those moves, check out this video. Since pieces must end in a capture, you will never be able to move a pawn forward, but rather may only capture diagonally with them. If a pawn reaches the top rank they do not get promoted. Also, there is no check rule for the king and, by design, every challenge that includes a King will end with the King as the last remaining piece.

If you are left with 2 or more pieces and are unable keep the capture streak going, then you lose and must reset the board and try again. When there is only one piece remaining, you win. Time to try your hand at the next puzzle. If you get stuck, you can reference the back of the rule book sheet for the solutions.

this feels like a minigame on actual chess

[honeyjuice]

i already know about this game because of vat19, but damn, the tutorial is way better on your channel.

""by design" every game including the king ends with the king" what does "by design" mean here? By design of the particular puzzles, not of the game itself, right?

He finally said "Fir a refresher of those moves"

You could just cover up part of a normal chess board and mark the pieces spots

What's this? My two favorite recreational activity game clashing?

[ThemeRBLX]

Isn’t there a rule where a piece can’t move 2 times

[pocketanimal]

I really don’t understand selling this because the only people who would want this already would own a chess board and could play this on that

[endlessedgar]

That's cute, so a mobile puzzle game but IRL. :3

[notdavid]

Didn't hear I'm not allowed to castle tho.

[stellage]

u forgot that a piece can move only 2 times ( solo chess)

[rosiefay]

Before this one, videos in this series have presented games and stated their rules (or how they differ from those of chess_.By contrast, this is an ad for a particular product (the book of problems).

[cptant]

A bit pointless because you can just solve actual chess puzzles instead.

Solitaire Chess seems to be a bit of a misnomer. Sudoku Chess seems a lot more accurate.

FYI the solution to the last puzzle is.
Knight takes bishop and pawn take rook and pawn further takes knight?
