There is also a console/MS-DOS version of SearchAndDestroyChess called SearchAndDestroyChessConsole.
There is also a VCL version of SearchAndDestroyChess called SearchAndDestroyChessVcl.
The following special rules apply to SearchAndDestroyChess:
- a player cannot be in chess, nor in checkmate. Instead, if the king is captured, the capturer wins. This is because it is possible for a king to be in check without knowing it
- Normal rules to en passant capture apply. But when a pawn can be captured en passant, this pawn is visible. This makes a pawn look sideways for only one turn. This is because the attacker must be able to see that he/she can make an en passant capture
- Normal rules to castling apply, except that castling can take place when in chess and through attacked squares. This is because it is possible for a king to be or getting in check without knowing it
- a pawn always gets promoted to a queen
SearchAndDestroyChess is programmed in
C++ using the SFML, STL, and Boost libraries.
One month after putting SearchAndDestroyChess online, I found out I wasn't the first to have invented this variant :-(.
The source code is hosted at the SearchAndDestroyChess GitHub.
