ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Computer shogi

Alright kiddo, have you ever played chess before? Computer Shogi is like chess, but a little bit different.

Instead of using knights, rooks, and bishops like in chess, Shogi uses generals, lances, and silver and gold generals. The aim of the game is to capture the opponent's king just like in chess.

But what makes Computer Shogi special is that it's played on a computer. That means that you can play against the computer instead of finding a human opponent.

The computer is very clever and can think and make moves just like a human can. It uses special algorithms and patterns to try to beat you.

But don't worry, you can still beat the computer by thinking ahead and using your own strategies to outsmart it. Plus, you can always adjust the difficulty level to challenge yourself more or make it easier if it gets too tough.

So if you like chess and want to try something new, give Computer Shogi a go!
