So many comments for such a simple game!

Yes, the point is that doubleking is interesting and doublewide is
interesting, but the combination of the two is doubly interesting. 

Doubleking is especially interesting with the wide, not square, board.

Doublewide is especially interesting when doubleking lowers the average
number of moves per game.
