Janggi (장기) is a traditional Korean strategy board game for two players. Similar to Chinese Chess (Xiangqi), it is played on a 9×10 board with a river dividing the two sides and a palace (3×3 area) on each side.
Before the game begins, each player chooses their elephant/horse formation. There are 4 options for arranging the horses and elephants on the back rank.
Janggi is played on a 9×10 board (intersections, not squares). It has no bishop but has cannons and elephants. Generals are confined to the palace. There is no castling or en passant.
While similar, Janggi elephants can cross the river, cannons cannot capture without jumping, and the pieces start in slightly different positions. Janggi also allows players to choose their elephant/horse formation.
No. The General must always stay within the 3×3 palace area.
