I immediately liked this idea since it's much better than all those chess variants that have crazy new chess pieces, and can be played with a normal chess set. Also, it starts with fewer pieces, introducing them one by one, which is a nicer idea, and avoids the panic many kids have facing unknown openings.

This game follows all normal rules of regular chess,
but where the opening of the game does play a major role.
As the name states “blank chess”, the game starts without pieces on chess board.
And the board divides horizontally into two equal fields (Kingdoms), virtually those are white's field and black's field.
Each player should introduce their pieces randomly anywhere in their own field starting with King, one by one,
also can move or capture on their turn with already introduced pieces wherever possible on the board.
Remaining rules are same as the regular chess and no special moves except pawn promotion.
This chess game variant scores maximum probability of game-tree complexity.
