Looking for a captivating alternative to Western chess? Discover the strategic depths of Chinese chess (Xiangqi)!

This 21st Anniversary Edition of ZingMagic's critically acclaimed Chinese Chess app offers a stimulating and enjoyable twist on classic board games. Perfect for relieving boredom and sharpening your mind, Xiangqi presents a unique challenge.

Like Western chess, the objective is to checkmate your opponent's king. However, Xiangqi utilizes seven distinct pieces, each with its own movement rules, on a board incorporating both horizontal and diagonal lines. The central empty space symbolizes the Yellow River, dividing north and south China. Xiangqi often features quicker, more dynamic gameplay than its Western counterpart.

Even complete beginners can jump right in! The app provides comprehensive guidance, including hints, legal move displays, piece movement explanations, game information, and 20 skill levels to cater to your learning pace.
