White to move

Pawn race · with extras

Rules · Lesson 17 of 18

What it’s about

  1. Only pawns play here. From their starting rank they may move two squares if both are empty.
  2. En passant: if a pawn moves two squares to land beside yours, you may immediately capture it diagonally on the square it passed over.
  3. Reach the last rank or capture all opponents to win. With no possible move, it is a draw.
