Pedro Damiano versus NN 1497 - Medium difficulty

A short game from 1497, probably played in rome. This is a short game of 14 moves, narrated with 6 seconds between moves, but may be slightly difficult as the move progression doesn't follow theory as we know it (in 2025). The pgn follows, as well as a link to the game. If you are new to chess visualization, It might be easier to look at the game on a two-dimensional board while listening to the audio at first, then try restarting the game with your eyes closed. Alternatively, you can set up the pieces on a physical board and enjoy the game as it would have looked more than 500 years ago.
