#5So is the idea that the dark red squares are inaccessible and you just can't move to them? I spent way too long trying to figure that out. I was stuck thinking along the lines of not being able to to move into check, even after transformation to another piece.

Also, on Firefox for android, you can't move pieces downward. The browser hijacks the "drag down" gesture and refreshes the page.

Yup, you can't move to them. Weirdly I didn't notice them at all until several attempts in (and was getting confused as to why certain moves weren't allowed), in a way that reminded me of the Selective Attention Test[0]. Once I'd clocked them I was able to solve it pretty quickly.

The drag down gesture in Firefox was disabled last year because it interfered with page content. Are you running an old version or did you explicitly re-enable that behavior somehow?

#9Cool idea.
I have the feeling this would be even much better without the red squares and with a regular sized board. And that it would feel more logical and interesting to me.
Or is it impossible to create challenging puzzles without the red squares?
