More about this activity
There are 18 areas to explore. Success is required at each level before moving on.
The first six levels explore how the six pieces move. Players have to land on squares numbered 1 to 9 in the correct order avoiding the other numbers. Note that occasionally a layout will not be possible - just press the blue button for a redeal.
The next four levels are one-to-one combat where (for example) a queen may be pitted against a knight.
Finally we have four end game pairs. The first in the pair demonstrates the winning strategy while the second in the pair allows the player to try.
End Game may be played in tablet mode:
the square button = the blue button;
the circle button = the yellow button;
the tick = the help button.
Like most of my activities End Game contains no text.
