    [Game log #96]

    Here's the game featured in Chapter 159. It's a fog of war chess match, meaning the board is covered in a thick fog, making it unable for players to see their opponent's pieces. The only way to do so is to make use of each piece's vision range. For example, pawns can only see 1 space ahead, knights can see the spaces they could jump to, bishops can see the full diagonal unless an opponent's piece was blocking a square. The same was true for rooks and queens, which can see all the squares they could move to respectively, and would only have their vision obscured if a piece was blocking a square. Due to the state of the game, capturing the king, instead of checkmating it, is the only way to win the game. It is also impossible to capture any piece shrouded by fog, even if a piece was capable of moving to that square. Only pieces that could be seen, can be captured.

    I don't know if there is a fog of war analysis engine, but just in case, here's the full game log. This includes all the moves that were performed, but unable to be seen by Okisato in the chapter. I also feel it's noteworthy to note that Xiu was in fact moving and capturing pieces with her feet.

    Note: The R on move 17 stands for "resign".

    Author's Commentary #143:

    Time to talk about Chapter 143: Mimoko vs Maestro Wiley Frisch.
    The final game of Season 4 is here, and it's a showdown between Mimoko and Maestro Frisch. Originally, I actually planned for Wiley to become president, which is why his rating is 3050, in order to reference the fact that he'd be the leader of all 50 US states. However, as I finalized my ideas for the arc, I decided it would be better for him not to.

    Wiley was never intended to be a good person. Morally grey at best. However, when I finalized on what his relationship with Sheila would be, I felt he at the least didn't deserve to be rewarded. While it is tragic that his family was killed in a political protest turned violent, it doesn't excuse how he treated Sheila.

    Speaking of Sheila, she's now free to do what she wants with her life thanks to the wager Wiley made with Mimoko. She's also got friends like Katie and Sandy who will stick by her side and even push back against the party if they begin to turn on her. However, Clifford being the asshole that he is would turn on her without question if the party deemed her a traitor, which is why he deserved both those kicks he received.

    Finally, the next chapter will be the last chapter of season 4. Season 5 won't begin immediately, but instead, I'll be listing my top 10 favorite and least favorite games and characters in the series. You won't want to miss it.

    That's all for this commentary. I hope you enjoyed it.
