There can be some reverse variations - for example, if the first player exchanged all of his knights, or any other type of pieces, even the king, the game continues, but if the same was done after that by another player - he loses. So, the loser is the one who loses any last remaining piece type.

It would make the game more interesting since the players will have more motivation to develop their pieces and sacrifice them in some situations. For example, a player can sacrifice his queen or other remaining separate piece on his side to make his opponent's queen royal.
