Can I challenge a friend with the same seed?
Yes. Friend challenges can use the same seed setup so both players face the same compact tactical board.

Challenge Friends in Pocket Shuffle Chess
Challenge Friends is for the ancient human need to send someone a board position and imply, politely or otherwise, that they will not survive it. The same seed means the argument is at least fair.
Same board, fewer excuses
A friend challenge is not "trust me, this position was wild." It is a link. They can open it, play it, and discover the mistake themselves.
What friend challenges do
Challenge Friends creates a shareable game invite so another player can join a seeded Pocket Shuffle Chess setup.
Why seeds matter
Seeds make positions repeatable. Both players can face the same tactical structure, which makes rematches and score comparisons cleaner.
Best use cases
Use friend challenges for direct duels, beat-my-score moments, daily seed arguments, and quick tactical rematches.
What stays private
The public mode page is indexable. The actual game link is a gameplay URL and should remain noindex.
