Chess pieces and board magically merge in this intriguing game. Each player gets a full set of chess tiles, which are placed on the table one at a time, in connected fashion, and in turn. Play is similar to chess, with a few exceptions: (1) When you capture a king, you assume control over all remaining pieces in its color; (2) pawns move one square orthogonally and capture one square diagonally; (3) there's no castling, promotion, or capturing en passant; (4) you can't disconnect the board, and if capturing a king would disconnect the board, then the king isn't in check; and (5) you can move through your own pieces as well as through unoccupied space. For a more aggressive game, the rules suggest removing some pawns from play. So if you're bored with the chessboard, apply your wiles to these tiles.
