What kind of game is the Colosseum?

As soon as I saw the mention of the Colosseum, I immediately remembered the plot of playing the Colosseum with my friends during recess in primary school. At that time, the school didn't care that much. Bought a pair of fighting chess that I haven't played in the canteen. After class, I began to play with my friends. At that time, my friends and I put two stools together and set up a chess game. The two of them squatted on the ground furtively, trying not to attract the attention and onlookers of other students. We had a good time before the bell rang. Until now, I still vaguely remember the basic rules of the Colosseum, such as tigers and lions can jump over the river, and the weakest mouse can eat the strongest elephant. I don't know how long it has been since I played chess with my friends, but no one has mentioned this game of chess again, as if it never existed. Ask a classmate, shall we play chess? Do you have any fighting chess? I can only hear what animal chess is. I only know flying chess, chess and go. Let's play flying chess. It's simple ... and so on.

Now think about it, the Colosseum is also a good board game. It doesn't need four people to play chess at the same time to achieve the best balance like flying chess, nor is it as abstruse as Go and chess, so it needs to consider the significance of each step. The Colosseum is really suitable for primary school students. The rules are simple and reasonable. As long as two people can play a whole game.

But why now, why do we feel that the Colosseum is very unpopular? I think it has something to do with the popularity of the Internet. Because of the development of the Internet, many games played by primary school students at that time were gradually replaced by online games. Maybe in the past, there was a place where we could play chess and games together on weekends, but now not all primary school students play online games like League of Legends and the glory of the king. What's more, the Colosseum is one of the most unpopular chess games, and it will inevitably be taken away. However, I always remember that it really brought happiness to my childhood, made the relationship between me and my friends more harmonious, and promoted our friendship in infancy.
