Abstract

See full text

An accelerated game engine is described for calculating and illustrating legal moves for an active player's pieces. The game engine obtains a game state of the four-player chess game describing positions of pieces. The game engine removes a first branch of calculations including moves placing a captain piece of the first active player in check. The game engine further removes and/or retains branches of calculations relating to moves based on whether the King is in check. The client device can display a graphical user interface illustrating the board and the pieces. In response to receiving a selection of a piece to move by the first active player, the client device illustrates, via the graphical user interface, valid moves of the selected piece.
