Why the weird piece design? Doesn't this game just use regular Chess pieces?

Regular Chess pieces cannot capture friendly pieces. Isn't this set regular Chess pieces seen from above?

They can in this game. This is a usual equipment variant that just alters the rules.

Not if you mean Staunton pieces. None of them look like that from above.
