Looking for a different challenge than Western chess? Why not give Chinese chess, or Xiangqi, a try?
Welcome to the 21st Anniversary Edition of Chinese Chess. Combat boredom, enjoy yourself, and stimulate your mind simultaneously with this timeless board game.
ZingMagic's award-winning Chinese Chess app offers an engaging, thought-provoking, and fun alternative to traditional Western Chess.
Similar to Western chess, the goal is to capture your opponent’s King. You command seven different pieces, each with unique movement rules. The board features both diagonal and horizontal lines, and pieces move along these lines, stopping at intersections. The blank space in the middle represents the Yellow River, symbolizing the historic divide between northern and southern China. Major pieces in Chinese Chess enter the action more quickly, providing a faster-paced and more dynamic game.
