Looking for an alternative to Western chess? Why not give Chinese chess, or Xiangqi, a try?

Welcome to the 21st Anniversary Edition of Chinese Chess. Experience this classic board game to relieve boredom, have fun, and exercise your mind all at once.

ZingMagic's critically acclaimed Chinese Chess app offers a fun, stimulating, and interesting alternative to its Western counterpart.

Just like Western chess, the goal is to capture your opponent's King. You command seven distinct pieces, each with unique movement rules. The board features diagonal and horizontal lines, and pieces advance along these lines, stopping at their intersections. The blank central area represents the Yellow River, historically dividing northern and southern China. Key pieces in Chinese Chess enter the action more quickly, resulting in a faster-paced and more dynamic game.

New to the game? Not a problem. You'll receive guidance at every stage with helpful hints, legal move displays, piece move information, game details, and 20 adjustable skill levels, enabling you to learn Chinese chess at your own pace.
