Object: Capture the opponent's King. This game has been designed for one player to play against the computer. You make your move on the right board, which consists of more or less cloaked pieces. You never move a piece on the left board. The left board shows the board two half moves earlier (hence the name 'Delayed Chess'). This setup should help you learn to visualize the Chess board. You win if you capture the opponent's King. Otherwise all standard chess rules apply. For a good game, give the computer at least 3-5 seconds per move. Variant 2: pieces cloaked, but of different colours. Variant 3: white pieces invisible, black pieces cloaked. Variant 4: white pieces cloaked, black pieces visible. Variant 5: white pieces invisible, black pieces visible. Delayed Chess is related to Blind Chess and its variants (see the Zillions game 'Cloak Chess').
