How to Play
Three very major distinctions from traditional chess must be enabled to play DoubleCross™ Chess.
1 • The first distinction in DoubleCross™ is that either player no longer can choose what pieces they want to move as dictated by standard chess. Players will be forced to move a specific game piece (King, Queen, Rook, Bishop, Knight, and Pawn) depending on the draw of the DoubleCross™ ChessDek™ playing cards.
2 • The second is the ability for either player to move each other's pieces. Either player has the right to put their opponent's pieces in harm's way if they draw a card that dictates moving an opponent's piece.
3 • The third distinction is that the game is won when a player's or their opponent's King is captured, not checkmated first.
