About Xiangqi
Chinese Chess board game against a computer opponent. To win you need to capture the general of your opponent.
How to Play
Place your pieces according to their unique movement rules. The General can only travel one square at a time within the palace. Advisors must stay within diagonal moves within the palace. Bishops move exactly two squares diagonally and cannot cross the river. Horses move one square straight and then one square diagonally, but can be blocked by adjacent pieces. Rooks move any number of squares straight, serving as powerful attackers. Cannons move like chariots but must jump over exactly one piece. Pawns move forward one square and attack sideways after crossing the river. Remove the opponent's general to win the game. Strategize your moves carefully to outmaneuver the computer opponent.
