Sacred Square

After your 6th move, two empty squares become sacred. The affected side can pass through them but cannot land on or capture on them. The other side uses them normally.

Difficulty: hardAppears in: 2 levels

Strategy notes

Turn the constraint into a lever.

Plan around it

  • Use sacred squares as blocked landing zones, not solid walls.
  • Force enemy pieces away from protected squares before attacking them.

Keep in mind

  • Rooks, bishops, and queens may pass through empty sacred squares.
  • You cannot capture an enemy piece while it stands on a sacred square.
