Really Bad Chess is just like chess, but with totally random pieces. Try 8 Knights, 4 Bishops, and 3 pawns — why not?

------A WORD FROM THE DEVELOPER
Chess is one of those games I always wished I enjoyed, but its commitment to beauty, elegance, and perfect balance always turned me away. Really Bad Chess removes these boring restrictions and flips chess on its head.
As much as random pieces change the game in some ways, I was really surprised to notice how much the game remains the same, and how powerful some pieces are — you've never truly struggled against a pawn until you've struggled against a pawn in the back row.
For chess pros, Really Bad Chess will give you a new type of challenge — the pieces & the moves are the same, but you'll have to throw out your openings and your understanding of normal patterns of play.
For novice chess players (like most of us), Really Bad Chess greatly opens up the game. Instead of starting by studying openings, in your first games you'll get to discover the joy (and challenge!) of learning how to checkmate.
I hope you have as much fun with Really Bad Chess as much as I did making it.

------一个字从显影剂
国际象棋是那些游戏我一直希望我喜欢的,但其美丽,优雅和完美平衡的承诺总是把我走。非常糟糕的国际象棋删除这些无聊的限制和翻转发挥得淋漓尽致棋。
尽可能随机件改变游戏在某些方面,我真的很惊讶于看到比赛有多大仍然是相同的,有的作品有多么强大 - 你从来没有真正地挣扎着对一个棋子,直到你奋斗了反对的棋子在后排。
对于国际象棋职业选手,真是棋差一会给你一个新的类型的挑战 - 件和招式都是一样的,但你必须抛弃你开口和你的正常发挥模式的了解。
对于新手棋手(我们大多数人一样的),真是棋差一大开了游戏。相反,通过研究开口开始的,在你的第一个游戏,你会得到发现的喜悦(和挑战!)学习如何将死的。
我希望你有一个非常糟糕象棋,我也使它尽可能多的乐趣。
