What are some weird or funny house rules for a game?

We played Risk where the pink army started out as neutral defenders around the map who were the Peace Corps and couldn’t attack. Also certain conquests entitled the player to a victory feast, which shortly after Halloween meant Halloween candy, and later meant fig newtons or whatever we had to eat.

I have a house rule in chess that whenever one player checkmates the other he is allowed to rise from his seat, yell “checkmate biatch!!!!” and punch the loser right in the face.

Yeah, I’m no longer welcome at the local club.

Clothing is optional when playing with the opposite sex.

I love chess. So much so that I’ve gotten a little board (punny) with the standard version and invented a new one.

BATTLE CHESS

- Place a barrier in the middle of the chess board so you and your opponent can’t see each others pieces.

- Set up your pieces however you want in the back 2 rows.

- Remove the barrier.

- Game On

No Castling
All pawns can still move 2 squares on their 1st move
En Passant still applies
