60 testing games and version history information:

https://www.chess.com/4-player-chess?g=7886533

Changed promotion rank to 8th from 9th to make position sharper

https://www.chess.com/4-player-chess?g=7886622

https://www.chess.com/4-player-chess?g=7886647

Random zombie changed to patzer zombie (less interference with players)

Changed 1|1 to 1|0 (just to try it out)

Middle pawns moved backward; blue moves first instead of red (more options in opening)

Multiple rule tests with bots; 10 pt mate added to prevent people from sacrificing pieces for pawns, removed P4M

https://www.chess.com/4-player-chess?g=7892654

https://www.chess.com/4-player-chess?g=7892676

Removed royalty from yellow rook to see what would happen

https://www.chess.com/4-player-chess?g=7902615

https://www.chess.com/4-player-chess?g=7902651

P4M added back because disrupting rook and losing is very unsatisfying

https://www.chess.com/4-player-chess?g=7902746

P4M removed, 40 pt mate makes disruption still always win but discourages trading pieces for pawns

About game:

The checker zombie prioritizes checks over mates, but it will mate if there are no checks. I used this gimmick to create this concept, which has not ever been used before. Promote a knight and clog the center file when the checker attacks your opponent. Be careful not to kill yourself by clogging; you have to time your knight invasion right. This game is much simpler than my previous game, so I will not post any strategies here.

Thank you for posting a new Wheel Of Fortune game! Very cool and interesting game! Everything about the game has already been said by its creator (thanks again), I can only confirm it. A very unique idea, we don't have any analogues even close! Thank you for bringing variety to WOF games!

Keep up the good work, we are looking forward to see your new creations!
