Editor's Take
By the Pogglo editorsJunluqi brings the flip-chess take on Luzhanqi — the classic Chinese army chess — to the browser. In the tradition this game draws on, every piece begins face down, and each flip is a small reveal: officers outrank soldiers, bombs trade themselves for whatever they strike, and landmines lie in wait for the careless. Half the battle is memory; the other half is nerve.
Because so much information starts hidden, flip chess plays less like a memorized opening book and more like a duel of probabilities — you weigh what has been revealed, guess at what hasn’t, and commit. If you grew up around a Luzhanqi board this is a familiar ritual, and if you didn’t, it’s an approachable doorway into one of the great strategy traditions of Chinese board gaming.
