Features
Read full description

無料将棋ゲームです。 昔はAIも弱かったので、普通の将棋アプリとして出していました(「モバイル将棋」という名称で出していました)が、今は強いAIがたくさんあるので、変則的な配置やルールで遊べる将棋メインにしています。 この将棋では、初期配置が通常の将棋と異なる以外に、以下のようなモードの将棋が楽しめます。 完全将棋 - すべての駒を取らないと勝利にならない将棋。 チェス将棋 - 取った駒を使えないチェスのような将棋。 二手指し将棋 - 二手ずつ指す将棋。 はさみ将棋 - 「歩」で相手の「と金」を挟むことを目的とした将棋。 陣取り将棋 - 3x3にある自分の「歩」を相手の陣地側に全て移動させるのを目的とした将棋。 繰り返しになりますが、通常の平手戦での対戦は上級者には向いていないです。短手数攻略などを探したり、少し変わったルールで遊びたいのなら上級者でもありだと思います。 2025年8月に以下のアップデートを行いました。 ・二手指し将棋を追加。 ・はさみ将棋、陣取り将棋を追加(別アプリで出していたものをこちらで遊べるようにした)。 2024年1月に以下のアップデートを行いました。 ・チェス将棋を追加。 ・飛車角将棋、角飛車将棋を追加。
