Chess: Magic Chess 3D

Move like a knight. Reveal as a rook. Rethink your next move. Magic Chess brings hidden-piece rules to an 8×8 chessboard, creating a variant where each reveal can reshape your plan. MOVE BY THE SHELL. CONTINUE AS THE REVEALED PIECE. Both kings are visible from the start. Each side's other 15 pieces begin hidden. Before a piece is revealed, it moves according to the piece that normally occupies its starting square. On its first move, it reveals its identity and follows that piece's movement rules from then on. For example, the hidden piece on g1 can move to f3 like a knight, then reveal as a rook. You must consider both the immediate move and how to use the piece you uncover. Each side has its own pool of 8 pawns, 2 rooks, 2 knights, 2 bishops and 1 queen. Every reveal removes an identity from that side's remaining pool. DECISIONS THAT STAY WITH YOU Revealing a piece adds information to the game. Regular Magic Chess matches do not allow undo, preserving the consequences of learning what a hidden piece is. Protect your king: checkmate remains the objective. LEARN ON THE BOARD Interactive lessons introduce movement, reveals, captures and checks in Magic Chess. Visual hint arrows show a direction to consider while leaving you to make the move yourself.
