Has anyone else seen the wierd touch screen game of chess you can play in UK pubs.
Its on a chess board 5x8. The pieces are not facing their equal. K,Q,B,N,R
p,p,p,p,p

p,p,p,p,p
R,N,B,Q,K

Got the highscore in my local pub.
Anyone else?

I've seen that game. It's probably in Berkeley somewhere...I forget where I saw it.

I saw it in a pub in Hindley, UK.
Did not play it as someone was hogging it so I just played pool and drank.
Maybe next time I will try it.

Yes I've seen one. The computer generally plays set moves. Easy to a good high score.

Just remember your moves
