Losing Chess
Free GameAbout Losing Chess
A one (or two) player Losing Chess game. The first player who cannot move, wins; and if you are able to take a piece, you must.
Losing Chess looks like its namesake, and the pieces have the same movements, but the point is to get rid of your pieces as quickly as possible. Its other names include the formal: Anti-Chess; the descriptive: Suicide Chess; and the mathematical: Co-Chess.
In play, it is rather like a cross between Chess and Draughts (Checkers). The key to winning is to force your opponent to take piece after piece. But remember, any pawn of yours which reaches the opposite end will become a queen, and then you're in trouble.
Games are quick, and three difficulty modes are included (with Tricky being really quite tricky to complete).

App is simple and easy to use. AI of the chess program is good. However, there is no easy way to switch sides. Furthermore, the app does not allow choice of pawn upgrade

It uses only part of my screen; there could be some improvements of rules, like autoqueening on/off; but anyway it's very cool.

Good fun but some bugs such as AI occasionally reversing their move or not taking a piece when supposed to. Additionally, there should be some sort of stalemate when stuck with different bishops.

It's a good spin on an old classic, would be good to be able to play as black instead of only white.

In most version you get to pick when promoted. Auto promotes to queen. Also crashes from time to time.

Not bad but pawn should be able to move two square from starting position. The ai should be harder( lack in opening)

The computer moves way too fast. I can't start a new game without manually terminating the app
