Throw off the shackles of competition and play Cooperative Chess with friends instead! Can you meld minds and thwart everything thrown in your way to complete a totally perfectly normal game of chess?
I decided to allow the tutorial to be opt in based on post-launch feedback.
I had also already wanted to add a reminder that the ultimate goal is checkmate for either side. So I took the opportunity to add a dismissible rules card that shows up during play, which also includes the basic round goal and can serve as a tutorial replacement for players that prefer to learn hands on.
