Shogi, also known as Japanese chess or the Game of Generals, is a two-player strategy board game in the same family as Chess, Chaturanga, Makruk, Shatranj, Janggi and Xiangqi, and is the most popular of a family of chess variants native to Japan. Shogi means general’s board game. When two individuals engaged in the game, they are seated across from each other at a low table, each focused intently on the Shogi board between them. The board is made of plastics and divided into squares, similar to a chessboard, with the pieces arranged in their starting positions. The pieces, known as “koma,” are distinguished by their shape and characters written on them in Japanese Kanji. The players are wearing traditional Japanese attire, such as kimono and hakama, adding to the cultural authenticity of the scene. Unlike its Western chess counterpart, Shogi allows captured pieces to be redeployed onto the board, adding an exciting layer of tactical possibilities and comebacks. There are 40 pieces of chess in total, with 20 pieces at each side. The chess board is magnetic and extensible. The extended size of the board is 10x10x1 inch (25x25x2 cm). The chess pieces can be placed on the board and not shaking. This make the game a perfect set for indoor and outdoor recreation. Besides as item for game, Shogi is also a perfect item for home decoration, office decoration, business gifts, and display of Japanese culture.
