Magichess is an amazing evolution of traditional chess played on a 10x10 board with a help of the dice, the throw of which determines how far the player's pieces can go during one turn. Magichess introduces two additional pieces on the board - the Wizards. They are as free in motion as Dragons (Queens in traditional chess) but can pass through the pieces of their kin. When they kill an enemy, the tenacity of the enemy piece is converted into extra steps for the kin during the current turn. It is really a new level of strategic thinking and passion in the familiar game. All you know about chess can be left aside. Get ready for an amazing adventure for your brains.
