On a rainy night you find a chipped wooden General under a pine tree. Old Mộc, the hermit of Kỳ Sơn mountain, recognizes it as his own piece from a game he lost three years ago, and takes you as his apprentice. Cờ Tướng Kỳ Đạo is a story-driven way to learn xiangqi (Chinese chess): no ads, no sign-in, no internet needed. Available in English, Traditional Chinese and Vietnamese.
TRAIN ON THE MOUNTAIN
• Five floors of training: first steps, mating ideas, openings, middlegame, deeper mates.
• Seven lessons on how each piece moves, then 90+ original positions: openings, middlegames, mates in 1 to 3.
• Every step is a bamboo slip stamped with red seals. Solve without hints or mistakes to earn all three.
• Hints are always free: first the piece to move, then the target square.
PASS THE GATES
• Each floor ends with a gate: beat the wooden dummy, solve five mates in a row, face your senior Lam Nguyệt, win within 60 moves a knight up, and finally play your master.
• Seals add up to ranks, from novice to grandmaster.
GO FORTH
• Pass the final gate to leave the mountain. An antique map of Kỳ Châu leads you to the Red River ferry and the Eastern Capital.
• Every opponent has their own style and voice: the steady ferryman, the by-the-book scholar, the reckless Cannon Fiend.
• Beat each region’s boss to claim its General’s Seal.
WOODEN BOARD, CARVED PIECES
• Fragrant-wood or inlaid rosewood board with engraved lines and the river inscription.
• Carved wooden pieces with Chinese characters or Vietnamese names.
• Captures, checks and checkmates each have their own effects and sounds: wooden clacks, war drums, a ringing gong.
• A pentatonic soundtrack for each chapter: zither and flute on the mountain, moon lute on the road, battle drums for bosses.
