Shogi Island

将棋の島へようこそ。

A nearby island where chess is a footnote and Shogi is everything. Shogi Island operates by its own rules and its own language.

ここでは将棋がすべてです。チェスは忘れてください。 (Here, shogi is everything. Forget chess.)

Notable Features

• Located near both Checker Town and Chess City — 二つの世界の間にある島 (an island between two worlds)
• Shogi is the dominant game; chess is rarely played — 将棋が支配的なゲームです
• Everyone on the island speaks Japanese — 島民は全員日本語を話します
• Has its own distinct culture, separate from the chess-and-checkers world of the mainland

Role in the Story

Shogi Island exists at the edges of the story — a reminder that the world is bigger than the chess-versus-checkers divide. Whether Nate or Princess passes through here remains to be seen.

旅人よ、ご注意を。ここのルールは違う。 (Traveler, take heed. The rules here are different.)
