There is a secret game hidden in
Facebook's messenger: Code allows users to play a game with each other even
while they keep chatting. This is quite interesting !!!
Facebook has
revealed a secret hidden in its Messenger app.
Built into the messaging platform is ‘FBChess,’ a hidden game that
can be accessed with a simple command.
FBChess can be accessed in
message thread by sending '@fbchess play'
This will pull up the virtual
chess board, and game will assign White/Black
To move, abbreviate piece
and indicate which square (e.g. '@fbchess Pb3')
Users can engage in a
game of chess in the middle of a conversation, and the trick will work on the
mobile Messenger app, the webpage pop-ups, and the traditional messaging
window.
Unless you
know the command, which most users are unaware of, the secret game goes
completely undetected.
To open FBChess, start a conversation with another person, and
send ‘@fbchess play’.
The trick was first posted on reddit.
This will pull up the game board, and assign colours to the
players.
The person who began the game will be ‘White,’ meaning that player
will make the first move.
Accessing the game is simple, but playing may take a few moments
of familiarizing if you’re not accustomed to the command notations in chess.
On the horizontal axes, the virtual chess board has letters to
represent each column on the board.
The vertical axes show numbers, indicating each of the rows
across.
The pieces can be moved by dictating which one will be moving, and
to what square.
To do this, write in Standard Algebraic Notation.
This means:
B for bishop, R for rook, Q for queen, K for king, and N for knight (since K
has already been used for King).
Pawns typically don’t have an abbreviation, but in the game, pawns
can be moved by writing ‘P,’ or by issuing the square command without
indicating a particular piece.
‘@fbchess b3'
The game is case sensitive, so be sure that letter representing
the piece is capitalized, while the letter for the square is lower-case.
So, if your first play would take the second pawn from the left
and move it up one block, you would write: ‘@fbchess Pb3,’ or simply ‘@fbchess
b3'.
The board will update as you play, letting you know whether it is
the ‘White,’ or ‘Black’ turn to play.
FBChess will even suggest possible commands to help you through a
game, and this can be accessed by sending ‘@fbchess help’.
The game allows for the players to have a regular conversation
while playing, so you can continue talking, or leave and return to the game as
needed.
And, since it works on both mobile and web Facebook platforms,
FBChess can be easily accessed wherever you are, without having to download an
external app.
