Bughouse is a team game on two linked boards. Team 1 is White on Board A with Black on
Board B; Team 2 is the reverse. Both boards play at the same time.
- When you capture a piece, it goes to your partner, who can drop it on their board
instead of moving.
- Dropped pieces take your colour. Pawns can't be dropped on the first or last rank.
- A captured promoted piece becomes a pawn.
- Checkmate or capturing a king on either board loses the game for that team. King
safety isn't enforced, so you may leave your king in check, but it can then be captured.
There is no clock.
- Choose how many CPU players each team has. CPUs take the Board B seat of a team first; every other seat is a human, taking turns on this device (any side to move can be played).
