RULES:
The rules are the same as regular chess except for these changes. The object of the game is to checkmate or capture your opponent’s king. Before you make a move, there are 2 spells you can use if you want: Jump and Freeze. Jump allows you to target any unit on the board, for your next more and your opponent’s next move, that piece may be passed through by other pieces.

Freeze allows you to target a 3 by 3 area and prevent all pieces in that area from moving during your current turn and your opponent’s next turn. You can use this spell to escape check or checkmate if you want. When it is your turn again, those pieces may move again. Frozen spaces may be passed through, and frozen pieces may be captured. If you king isn’t frozen, but your rook is, you are still allowed to castle.

Each spell has a number indicating how many times you can use it each game. After you use a spell, there is a 3-turn cooldown you must wait before you can use it again. You can only use a maximum of 1 spell per turn.

You don’t have to respond to check or checkmate if you can capture the enemy king. The first player to capture or checkmate their opponent, wins.
