Echek is a chess-inspired game which is played with only 12 cards and without an actual board. Each player has 6 pieces (King, Queen, Root, Bishop, Knight and Pawn) with chess-like moves and they play on a 4x4 virtual square. The game begins with both Kings face to face, and each turn players can move a piece or put a piece into play. The game ends when a King is surrounded by 4 pieces. —user summary
