This means putting your opponent in check means they will probably get a free move, since leaving your king in check is illegal!

Ways to give your opponent a free move:
Move a piece in front of a pawn that was about to move.
Move a piece out of the way of a pawn that was about to capture.
Move a piece in the way of a piece that was about to move (moving your piece to they piece’s destination will result in capture)
Pin or capture a piece that was about to move.
Put your opponent in check so their move would leave them in check.
Attack a square their king was going to move to.
Attack or move to d1 d8 f1 or f8 when they were about to castle.

How about both players write down and move simultaneously? Because with the writing down turns are no longer necessary.
—differences from normal chess—
On each player’s first turn, they play a move and write down what would be a legal move(without x, + or #) after that.
For example, you could play e4 then write e5 or Nf3, but not ed5 because there is no pawn on d5 yet, and you could not write Bb2 because the b2 pawn has not been captured yet. On all subsequent turns, you play the move you have written down and write down a new one. If the move you wrote last turn is no longer legal, you can move anywhere.
