The Story
The Roman Empire has fallen and the Medieval Era has begun.
It is an age of barbarism and darkness.
The rural plains of Western Europe have become a lawless land of independent kingdoms.
You must lead your kingdom into battle against enemy forces.
With each campaign, you must conquer or be conquered.
To ensure victory, you'll need to set up your army with strategy...
move in secret behind the fog of war...
and capture the enemy king!
How You Play!
For 2 Players | Ages 8 to Adult
The goal of Stealth Chess® is to capture your opponent's King. Each player has 16 pieces and sets them up anywhere in the first two rows on the game board so that the other player can't see their pieces. The players take turns moving until one of their Kings is captured.
All pieces are traditional when viewed from the front but move in secret behind a uniform design on the back. Each player starts with the same pieces as traditional chess.
Strategically set up your pieces anywhere in the first two rows (ranks).
Each piece has the same movements as traditional chess.
Learn your opponent's pieces by their movement.
Use your movements to deceive your opponent (You could move your Queen or Rook like a Pawn).
No check... no checkmate... capture the King!
