All the pieces move like in normal chess except you can capture the king and if you can capture a piece on your next move you HAVE to. First one to lose all their pieces win.

 

Its way more fun than chess although makes you forget how to play properly.

It's called "giveaway chess" and it has been around for many, many years. I first saw it described around 1970 and it wasn't new then.  Because captures are compulsory, it is sometimes possible, by successive offers, to gain control of one of the opponent's bishops and, piece by piece, force it to take just about all of one's own pieces except one's own bishop of the opposite color. Whether it's more fun than normal chess is a matter of personal taste, but I wouldn't say so.

It’s not personal taste, if you don’t find it more fun than normal chess you’re a mong

Oh, I dislike most non-chess variants, aside from bughouse, which I haven't played in years.

Atomic chess, it will give Oppenheimer the joy of his lifetime and inhibit him from supposedly losing to Einstein in a standard chess match.

Atomic is fun to play once in a blue moon
