Tunnel Brawl! Chess Variant App (2023)

Overview

A two to four player variant of chess.

This game was originally designed by Mark Alan Osterhaus and appeared under the name Bosworth in the U.S. and Waterloo in Europe. I tried to cleave as close to the original rules as I could.

The game is designed to be played synchronously, and each player will see the moves made by other players in real time.

Built using JavaScript, React, Ruby on Rails, and Active Cable.
