Fog of war is an exciting variant which can easily be played here or on other websites and apps which have this variant. But how do I get the fun on a real chessboard? Pls tell. Hope to find the answer as quickly as possible.

It is impossible to play Fog of War on a "real" chessboard. The dark feature cannot be replicated.

you can do it with 2 boards and 2 sets of pieces

You need two boards and a neutral 3rd person.

I have but how to do it?

You make moves on your board, your opponent makes moves on theirs.

After each move, the third person updates your board with the pieces that are within view of your pieces.  Same for your opponent's board.

Okay. Thanks for telling.

You can use the above method with a neutral third person (which would take a long time, IMO), or use some AR glasses (like google glasses) that can hide that part of the board for you. Not sure if the latter is possible.
