Version
3.1.40
At the start of the game some pieces are set down in
the horizontal row of squares, nearest each player.
The pieces are divided into two matching sets, by
convention called white and black. The players
alternate moving one piece of their own at a time.
Each piece moves according to specific rules and is
removed from the board when an opposing piece moves
into its square, thus displacing it. The object in
game is to trap, or checkmate, the opponent's king.
MiniChess do not have to end in checkmate either
player may resign if the situation looks hopeless.
Games also may end in a draw. A draw can occur in
several situations, including draw by agreement,
stalemate, threefold repetition of a position, the 50
move rule, or a draw by impossibility of checkmate
(usually because of insufficient material to
checkmate).
