Thai Chess: A Digital Adaptation of a Classic

Thai Chess, played on an 8x8 board, shares similarities with classical chess but features key distinctions. The initial setup mirrors classical chess, except for two crucial differences: the white queen starts on e1 and the white king on d1 (each king positioned to the left of its queen from the player's perspective); and pawns are positioned on the third rank (white) and sixth rank (black).

Piece movement largely follows classical chess rules:

  • King: Moves one square horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Castling is not permitted.
  • Queen: Moves only one square diagonally.
  • Rook: Moves any number of unoccupied squares horizontally or vertically.
  • Bishop: Moves one square diagonally in any direction or one square forward vertically.
  • Knight: Moves in an "L" shape (two squares in one direction, then one square perpendicularly), as in classical chess.
  • Pawn: Moves one square forward vertically and captures one square diagonally forward, similar to classical chess. Pawns promote only to queens upon reaching the sixth rank.

The objective, as in classical chess, is to checkmate the opponent's king. A stalemate results in a draw. The game supports single-player mode against AI, two-player mode on a single device, and online multiplayer.
