What is Anti Chess?

Anti-Chess is a rare and interesting variation of classic Chess with the agonizing twist: you have to lose. Instead of clinching a capture on the opponent's king, you strive to lose every one of the pieces in your arsenal, including your own king. It's a very casual pastime to keep strategic juices flowing in varied ways and is perfect for the Chess aficionados who want to give something different a try.

Rules of the Game

The rules of Anti-Chess are more or less those of standard Chess with reversed goal. Pieces-moves would remain the same: pawns, knights, bishops, rooks, and queen move just as in the original Chess rules. Essentially, the key difference is capturing an opponent's piece is optional, while one may always sacrifice their pieces. The first player to lose all his pieces, including the king, is declared the winner. It's a game of strategy, risk, and sometimes a little luck.

Tips & Tricks

  • Sacrifice Wisely: Do not rush to sacrifice your pieces. Think ahead and sacrifice pieces that are not very valuable in future moves.
  • Control the Center: Control of the center always brings options and flexibility in the same way it does in classic chess.
  • Balance the Risk and Rewards: Sacrificing of pieces can be good, but do not leave your king on dangerous spots or outright cost yourself pieces that might be captured by your opponent.
  • Adjust Your Strategy: You'll probably have to change your strategy as the game goes on. Be prepared to change how you play, according to the remaining pieces on the board.

History

Also known as "Anti-Gomoku" or "Sacrifice Chess," Anti-Chess has been an accepted variant among Chess players for several years.

It is simple and yet quite deep, making it my top pick for casual play and friendly challenges.
