Chess's wilder cousin
Mini is 5×5 minishogi: six pieces each, games in minutes, easy to pick up.
Drops change everything
Captured pieces join your army. Drop them back on almost any square. Comebacks are always live.
No dead draws
Because pieces return to play, games almost always end in checkmate, not a fizzle.
Mate in 1
The pawn wall traps the king on the back rank. Drop the rook.
