Gold Goo Scenario is an asymmetrical chess variant in which only one side is playing anything remotely approaching chess.

It's also part of an ongoing mixed media storytelling experience.

To play you will need:

  • Another player
  • A chessboard
  • Basic chess pieces
  • A surplus of pawns, checkerboard pieces, coins, or other tokens to represent the goo.

The game can be won by either side as experienced in playtesting but I'm hard pressed to determine which one has the advantage here. 

Rules and associated media are presented in a downloadable PDF. Please consider the environment before printing this game.

It was created for Week 8 of the Struthless Alphabet Superset Challenge, for the letter G (for Goo, and also Gold I suppose).

Design, writing, graphics, all created by me, except for the 6 flavour photos which were licensed from Pexels and then modified by me. Related Blog Post/Explainer: Gold Goo Scenario, Agricultural Collapse, and Breaking Chess
