Shénmǎ Jiānghú

Shénmǎ Jiānghú is a flying chess game in which you roll dice and move pieces around a board. You can play against the computer, whose AI provides a challenging opponent, or play with family and friends. All heroes are available to choose from, and each has a unique skill.

Game modes

The game has three modes:

• Classic mode: play flying chess using the classic rules.
• Item mode: random items appear on top of the classic mode, adding variety and uncertainty to each match.
• Endless mode: there is no finish line. Destroy enemy pieces to score points; reaching the required score is the only way to win.

Classic mode rules

Classic mode supports two to four players. Each player starts with four pieces and takes turns rolling the dice. Before the game begins, players can set the die result needed to launch a piece from its base; a piece can take off only when the roll matches that setting.

Pieces move forward around the board by the number rolled. If a piece lands on a square of its own color, it can jump to the next square of the same color, but cannot keep jumping. The first team to move all its pieces to the finish wins.
