Thanks for asking! When you play Fake Chess, you do not need to follow any standard movement rules. Pick up the piece, and plop it down on an empty square.
Hope that makes sense! Let me know if you have any other questions.
Yep, that's exactly right.
Winning strategy has nothing to do with your pieces' positioning on the chess board -- instead, you're focused on moving to those shaded squares on your game sheet to capture your opponent's pieces -- either to win by capturing all your opponent's pieces first, or to obstruct your opponent by capturing the piece they need to progress on their game sheet.
