Shogi
Japanese chess game
Shogi or Japanese chess is a traditional logical and strategy chess-like board game from Japan. Even non-chess players find out that Japanese chess is fun and many people who do not like chess, love to play shogi!
Shogi is very famous in its native homeland of Japan, where it has a very rich tradition and history.
The biggest difference from classic chess is that all captured opponent’s pieces can be returned back to the game as your own on any empty square. Another difference is that most of the pieces can be upgraded when they reach the promotion zone (the last 3 rows). In Shogi there are almost no tie games.
TRAIN YOUR BRAIN AND MEMORY
Learning by playing. Shogi exercises both sides of the brain like logical thinking, memory training, visual and analytical decision-making and much more.
DEVELOP STRATEGY THINKING
Making decisions in Shogi about game strategy promotes problem-solving skills and a balance between rational and emotional thinking.
IMPROVE CONCENTRATION
Playing shogi improves your concentration level by getting into the flow state of mind as if time has stopped and it teaches you how to not get distracted.
PROMOTE CREATIVITY AND IMAGINATION
In the game, you often need to improvise and come up with alternative approaches when the plan fails. Be creative and surprise your opponent.
