I think that the 'castles' and 'towers' are different things, 'castles' is the piece you created when you combined the rooks, and since there were only two rooks in the game left, you couldn't move it

Also, the rule on the merged rooks is that _castles_ can't move unless there are at least three _towers._ So I assume there the towers are the original rooks you start with and the castle is the merged rooks.

@hongkonger885

⁠Also, because pawns can't promote (they ascend), there can never be more than two towers (rooks) once two are spent to make a castle. So castles can never move. Nelson misinterpreted that as "the rooks cannot move" instead of "the castles cannot move".

A lot of those rules really did seem simple enough. It was very clear that the wording was specific for a reason and mattered, so I didn't see where the confusion came from on some. It also baffled me that you were not using the pawns to capture things when you were allowed to cheat, or even putting his pieces on those orange tiles to kill the piece and get rid of that orange tile.

It's clear from watching that he isn't familiar at all with the conventions of puzzle games and such, became a lot more fun to watch once I stopped expecting him to.

Go for the "good" ending - you get it if you don't cheat during the game. It's... not easy, Any of your pieces is in constant threat, because the troll can cheat at any time. But I found that the rule allowing you to move the opposite queen is a huge help. Move her to a slippery square, or move her directly to the "piece of knowledge" (the orange stuff left by bishops) to get rid of her.

For example I never noticed they would move my queen even though they could get rid of her immediately.

It’s bizarre watching you play a game of “chess” making these silly mistakes when I’m so used to watching your regular videos that contain so few of them

@Boundless_Border

25 күн бұрын

I've noticed that people who are really good at chess tend to do worse than a weak player when you modify the rules even slightly. And to be fair, at least with this one, he doesn't know all the rules to start.

When you catch him cheating, take his pieces with your pawns.

23:15 it's called "only the knight can jump over pieces" not the other one.

22:26 you accused the rook of the wrong rule "you can only move the towers when there are three", you should have done "only he can jump over peices"

Couldn’t you have just used a pawn for your “cheat” captures rather than using your pieces?

The "you are not a juggler" around 26:30 indicates you were on track to get a particularly awkward achievement and you just broke the rule you were accidentally following to get it.

I like how he forgot about the bishop out of the board on the last game

It seems that a Stalemate (pawns being small-minded) was also considered a win for you...

TBF, this is a bit hard to watch. It is entertaining, but a lot of the mistakes that you made were caused by you not reading the rules attentively, like when you assumed that queens can't take each other, or when you assumed that kings can't take opposing queens, or where you couldn't distinguish between castles and towers, despite having previously created a castle.

You should try oroboros king. Basically Chess+ but with power ups, currency, and new chess pieces.

Try it again without cheating. Said you got the bad ending so betting there is a good ending if you can do it without cheating back.. Also curious what the castle is if you make one.

You're confusing the rooks as castles. The rooks are towers. Remember when you had your two rooks side by side and they merged into a new piece? That's the "castle". You then have to promote pawns s.t. there are three more rooks, then the castle can move.

@@chesscraze9329 Interesting... thank you for that correction.

Just a little thing, on the first move (or any other time) you can take either of the black knights with the rook, because it will automatically turn into the castle, and therefore cannot be accused. Even better, you can do this with the pawns and take all of black's back-rank pieces (can't be accused because the pawn ascends.). Also, if you ascend 8 pawns, you automatically win the game, so since the troll's AI doesn't allow it to do any of the OP things it can do with the black advantage (take white's king with any piece automatically winning at any time) you can force a win in 8 moves no matter what. (You ascending your opponent's pawns also counts toward the 8 pawn ascension auto-win so if the troll cheats to eat a pawn of yours you can ascend one of thier pawns as revenge)

the most tricky part is that in this game, the pawns turned into wazirs

You should try ouroboros king

You mind was so on autopilot with chess rules specific to playing western chess that the only way to win by two things one focusing on the other chess pieces except the king until later to capture. two focusing on the provide rulebook & learn is much as you can by trying to uncover the hidden rules. & bonus question just how powerful was the advisor chess piece?

7:09 You said he moved in + pattern, not that he moved off the board, that's why it's false accusation 8:40 You acciedently break the rule of that it can only move in × pattern 22:52 There have to be 3 towers to move a CASTLE, not the ROOK 29:51 It says that queen can't take the king, not that king can't take the queen

the thumbnail move was actually an illegal move, even though bishops DO work out of town. This is because only HE can jump.

Watching a chess guy trying to play a funny game but being confused by the jokes rather than laughing is entertaining yet so infuriating.

19:28 - he can actually get it by pawn... or maybe he can move some enemy pieces out of board

22:39 wrong rule, Black Rook jumped when only he can jump.

8:20 I think that counts as the dark square outside the board, which is not on the diagonal

just realized theres a hint that theres multiple endings, when the troll says you can take your revenge, revenge is in quotations

like how bro at 32:34 just proceeded to not acknowledge the fact that rooks and towers are the same thing and castles are the orange structures so beginner-friendly game design. (sarcasm, it's not the devs fault)

One of those frustrating letsplays when the person playing has only a superficial interest in the game. Half of the problems in the video were because of not reading the rules closely, and ultimately, from not taking the game seriously.
