    Horsey obviously moves in 3D, that’s how it jumps over other pieces

      I thought they originally teleported, but I was recently informed it was actually tetris blocks.

        In some editions, they can also clip through the tiles and move under other pieces

    When my dad and grandpa were teaching me how to play chess, they told me that the knight moves in a “G” pattern. I could not for the life of me figure out how a G maps to what they showed me, so I figured out that it goes one diagonal, and then eitger one up if the diagonal was up, one down if it was down and the same reasoning for left and right. That’s still how I visualize it.

      It’s one of the most active communities on my instance, which, as someone that never came across it on Reddit, has been hilarious.

    I draw a circle sqrt(5) units in radius, then pick a target square based on whether that circle goes through the exact center of the square.

      This is how they move in Xiangqi, Chinese Chess, because if the one straight in front of them is blocked, the move is illegal.
