Luzhanqi (also known as "Land Battle Chess") is a classic Chinese abstract-strategy game. It combines elements of hidden information, deception, as well as tactical maneuvering. Two players command an army whose ranks are hidden from their opponent. Both players must position their army strategically and use careful deduction to defeat their rival. And the overall goal? To capture the enemy's flag while protecting your own!

Step into the Battlefield
Luzhanqi is a game of strategy and mind games, but it doesn't require fast reflexes. Rather, it requires careful planning, deception, and tactics. With clean pixel graphics, smooth gameplay, and a simple interface, this adaptation allows for the authentic Luzhanqi experience without the need for a referee.
The Rules in Summary
Each player commands an army of ranked soldiers, explosives, and a flag. All pieces are placed secretly on the board, and players take turns moving their pieces one step at a time, never revealing identities even in combat. Higher-ranked pieces defeat lower-ranked ones, but explosives can destroy any piece along with themselves. Set traps, scout the battlefield, and outthink your opponent to emerge victorious!
