Mini Board

Fast chess on a tiny 5×5 board.

How to play

A lightning-fast game on a 5×5 board. Each side has a king, queen, rook, bishop and knight behind a row of five pawns. Pieces move as in normal chess; pawns move one square only (no double step, no en passant, no castling) and promote to a queen on the far rank. Checkmate the bot's king to win; stalemate, the 50-move rule and bare kings are draws.
