Turn the cards in your hand into a plan they never saw coming. In Wildcard Chess, the goal is still checkmate. The way you get there has a whole new twist. PLAY THE BOARD. PLAY YOUR HAND. Every turn brings two things to think about: the position on the board and the cards in your hand. Set up an attack, hold a card for the right moment or rethink your plan when your opponent changes the game. DISCOVER WHAT YOUR CARDS CAN DO Move cards let you move up to four different pieces in a turn. Take 2 gives you two moves and two new cards. Flip swaps the sides you control.
