Just Xiangqi is a focused and respectful digital interpretation of Chinese chess that places clarity, authenticity, and accessibility at the center of its design. Developed and published by Studio Amateur, the game does not attempt to reinvent Xiangqi or gamify it with unnecessary embellishments. Instead, it aims to present the traditional experience in a clean, modern format that works equally well for newcomers...

This game is great. Well-implemented and an excellent learning tool. There is a comment that the tutorial is bad. i disagree. While more book-like with a few interactive examples than fully interactive, it taught me the game pretty quickly i really like the interface and vs computer mode. I'm a beginner but highly recommend this

Another game I am painfully braindead at but an absolute joy. Best place on steam to learn play and have a career in xiangqi. Nice visuals and graphics and no noticeable bugs.
