a form of chess play where a player does not look at the board but keeps track of the game in their mind, relying solely on their memory and visualization skills to make moves
What is "blindfold chess"?
Blindfold chess is a variant where players play without seeing the chessboard. Instead of physically moving pieces, they must visualize the board and keep track of the positions in their minds. Players announce their moves out loud, and the opponent responds by either moving a piece or stating their move. Blindfold chess challenges a player’s memory, concentration, and ability to visualize the game. It is often played by experienced chess players and can be done in both casual and competitive settings. It is a popular demonstration of skill in chess tournaments and exhibitions.
