In my thinking, if there was some RNG added to the turn by turn play of chess, with means of improving the odds through tactical play, then it would be the perfect 2 player board game.
Otherwise, it's almost impossible to fight back and win a chess match through audacious, if risky play, in normal chess. Once a person is in a position of advantage, they almost always win, unlike say in backgammon, where the player at disadvantage can deny victory to the other, for sometime, during which they might figure out some striking counterplay.
- dragonwriter 7y agoThere are a number of games which amount to some random element added to standard chess, one example is Knightmare chess: http://www.sjgames.com/knightmare/ http://www.sjgames.com/knightmare/ I seem to remember a simpler variation involving rolling dice to determine what pieces are allowed to move, but I can't seem to find anything about it.
