Having implemented and played this game a lot I don't think check makes sense in this game.
There is an advantage of moving into check quite often. (A check with a rook across the board is quite weak)
Better to just play until the king is captured. (This is also how regular check is equivalently played)
- jakelazaroff 7y agoI’m not sure I understand. In normal chess it’s illegal to move your own king into check.
- _nalply 7y agoThis is a variant of chess with different rules.
- jakelazaroff 7y agoI get that; I was just asking the parent to explain why check rules differ in this format. (It’s okay though, another comment put it in a way I understood.)
- petters 7y agoI meant that the game does not change in a meaningful way if moving your king into check is allowed. You will lose either way.
