About This Game

A thoughtful move across the river

Discover Chinese chess at your own pace, from learning how each piece moves to studying deeper positions in a customizable ink-wash setting.

Play, learn, and review

  • Play locally with a friend or face the offline Pikafish engine with four computation settings, side selection, undo, resignation, and time controls.
  • Learn with nine interactive lessons, a rules guide, and tactical exercises. Lesson narration is available in Chinese and English.
  • Practice selected historical endgame positions with hints, undo, and solution demonstrations.
  • Study built-in game records, save and review your own games, and import or export JSON records.
  • Arrange custom positions, flip the board, copy and paste FEN, and begin a game from your setup.
  • Resume saved games and customize backgrounds, fonts, music, ambience, and piece sounds.
The core experience focuses on local play, offline learning, and review. Friend rooms currently depend on a separate service; public matchmaking and Steam-friend integration are not promised.
