Check out Symmetric Chess, our featured variant for March, 2024.

Corral Chess.

This page contains one or more presets for playing a game online with Game Courier, an online server for playing Chess variants by correspondence.

Corral Chess is a 45 or 46 Cell Contest entry where the object is to force the opponent's King into a "prison" square directly below c5. This preset doesn't show this prison square since the board takes up too much space already, only a King can move into the prison, and doing so ends the game anyway.

The rules are here: Corral Chess rules

Here is the link for the preset:
