What is ‘Hand and Brain’ chess?
Hand-and-brain is a chess variant where each colour is played by two people. One of them (the "brain") announces one of the six pieces—king, queen, rook, bishop, knight, or pawn—and the other player (the "hand") moves any of the named piece on the board that has a legal move. Players must not communicate amongst each other in any way other than calling out which piece should move.
