Take Oo Ninnin. A Smess-like game vaguely similar to Shogi. (9x9, Cells: 81) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

The idea behind the game is an interesting one, and I would like to see how it plays out. Like my own game Smegi, this is a cross between Smess and Shogi, but it takes a different approach. Smegi introduces drops to Smess, whereas this game introduces elements of Smess to Shogi. The difference between them is similar to the difference between Chessgi and Kamikaze Mortal Shogi. Both games combine elements of Chess and Shogi. The former introduces drops to Chess, whereas the latter introduces the element of mortality (a usually taken-for-granted element of Chess and most Chess variants) into Shogi. Since you asked, I'll see what I can do about making the board.
