About

Sashité is an independent publisher of online board games.

The project

Your identity is a key you hold yourself, and your games are public, portable and verifiable — Sashité builds on an open protocol (Nostr) so that none of it depends on us. The games themselves draw on the world’s great chess traditions — why those games, and why this way, is told on the philosophy page.

The games

Sashité's first product, Sanki, plays three families on one shared 8×8 board:

  • Chess
  • ōgi — an 8×8 game in the shogi family
  • xiongqi — an 8×8 game in the xiangqi family

Your account

One key is your identity across every Sashité product. It is created the moment you arrive on Sanki, where you can also connect your own.
