ABOUT THE GAME
Collect and organize the pieces,
A series of battles over the royal castle.
``Shogi-like'' is a game that combines a battle where you move pieces on the board and a formation where you choose one piece from the pieces presented. There are no pieces, and each piece uses its abilities and numbers to break the opponent's formation.
CHOOSE A PIECE
From three candidates,
Select one to add to the formation.
When the gold general is selected, attack, defense, health, and movement range are displayed at the bottom. Confirm your selection by clicking "Confirm" and proceed to the battle.

Add physical strength and attack and defense values to shogi
Pieces have attack power, defense power, and physical strength. The piece's physical strength is reduced by the damage obtained by subtracting the defense from the attack, and the piece whose physical strength is reduced to zero is destroyed.
Increase the formation with three choices between battles
Three candidates will be presented at the beginning and at the end of the match. Choose a piece with different movement ranges and unique abilities and prepare for the next battle.
Continue a series of battles until defeat
You win by defeating your opponent's royal castle or annihilating all pieces other than the royal castle. Once you lose, you lose the composition of that challenge and restart from the beginning.
