Low Effort OC Chess dream

A while back I dreamed that there was a version of chess where you roll a d8 at the start of the game and the pawn on the file you roll is allowed to move two squares every move. Unfortunately my dream did not delve into what this means for en passant

So apparently the king can move two pieces sometimes

655 Upvotes

Played against homeless man in public park who had a peculiar breath smell to him like hand sanitizer and we played a game with a wager of $20 and I thought I had him beat

my knights and bishop cornered him into final corner where his king could not move.

But then he did a 'double square' move, where he moved the king two spaces instead of one.

I didn't know that this was a thing but I was flabbergasted and lost on time and ended up giving him my $20 which I needed to get home via train.

I am now stranded in Harvard Square and everyone I ask tells me that the king can move two pieces 'in a pinch'

edit:

I was subsequently mugged and am now in hospital and have lost eyesight in right eye. This as result of blunt fforce trauma

So can king move two squares sometimes?

Low Effort OC My post got removed in the main sub because I didn't give analysis or smth. I just thought it was cool that I got a fried liver type checkmate position without actually playing the fried liver attack.
