Dark Chess as a New Variant

The rules are as follows:
- You can only see your own pieces, not your opponents. Therefore, it is a game of incomplete information.
- The only way you can see squares and your opponents pieces is if you are attacking them or your piece is occupying that square.
- The game ends when checkmate occurs or the enemy king is captured (check is usually not announced)

I would love to see this on lichess!

+1 Dark Chess is amazing.

so essentially, fog of war!

sounds dumb

I love fog of war mechanics in games. I want this.

I heard it but it has a different name.

It's also called Fog-of-War Chess:

RIP dark-chess.com :-(

Sounds cool.

Love this idea. Really like the fact normal chess rules are maintained! A perfect way to work up to blindfold chess and fun. invisible squares that light up = win

Sounds interesting
