1500 DS Spirits - Shougi V — About this game
Shogi is a contest to trap the opposing king, with captured pieces becoming resources of your own. Move each piece according to its pattern, protect your king and look for chances to promote in the enemy zone. A captured piece can be dropped back onto an empty square under the legal drop rules, so removing an attacker does not remove it from the game. Watch both the board and the pieces in hand when judging threats. Build a defense before sending everything forward, then use coordinated attacks rather than relying on a single valuable piece.
