Hand & Brain
Is a chess variant intended to be played by pairs where one player is a hand and the other player is the brain. The brain calls out a piece or a pawn (for example, “bishop”) and the hand should then choose which bishop to move and where. In this tournament the adults will be the hand and the kids the brain.
