chess but it's a gacha game where you start out with only a few pawns and a king and you have to roll gacha for the other pieces. periodically new fairy pieces are introduced that you also roll for. EX stages where you play on boards larger than 8x8

hmm this started out as a joke about how gacha games have to constantly introduce new content to be interesting but now i think this sounds like a lot of fun actually. fischer random chess for the 21st century

TIL (well, technically yesterday) that there's a variant of shogi (japanese chess) played on a 36x36 board where each side has 402 pieces that move in 253 distinct ways

Today, we made a #MoveForEquality. @anishgiri and I broke a rule and black started instead of white. Through chess, we can give a new perspective to the worldwide discussion about how we can build a world where opportunity is equal.

you only play as the male protagonist. We may imagine the female support has the most agency of any character in the series, but for any context that makes sense to the protagonist her existance is given only for the future of the kingdom.
She's as much a pawn as the royal clergy

This was actual discourse when the queen was introduced, that it was crazy feminist stuff
