Animal Chess also known as Dou Shou Qi or, Jungle Chess is a two-player board game popular in East Asian countries. The game is played on a 9x7 board consisting dens, traps and rivers. Each player plays with 8 game pieces of his/her own color representing different animals of various ranks (or strengths) which start with a specific formation at the beginning. Players aim to race any of their pieces to the opponent's den to win. Players can also win by capturing all of the opponent pieces. Pla
