Hidden Chinese Chess

Hidden Chinese Chess is a video game version of a real-life variant of Chinese Chess called Banqi. It’s played on a board half the size of a normal Chinese Chess board, and all 32 tokens are turned face-down so you can’t tell which pieces they are. Players take turns either turning over the tokens to see which piece and color they are, or moving the pieces of their color which have already been revealed. Though it can take a little while to get used to, Hidden Chinese Chess is said to be quicker than normal Chinese Chess with most games generally lasting 10-20 minutes.
