Crazyhouse

Crazyhouse is a chess variant that allows players to drop captured opponent pieces back onto the board as their own, similar to chess drop mechanics. When you capture an opponent’s piece, you keep it in a “reserve,” and on subsequent turns, you can place it onto any empty square instead of moving a piece already on the board. This adds a dynamic layer of strategy, as players can reuse captured assets to threaten opponent positions or defend key areas. The game combines traditional chess tactics with the flexibility of piece reintroduction, creating high-paced and unpredictable gameplay.
