How it feels
A playful, animated chess game where classic strategy is brought to life with lighthearted combat animations.

What players say
Players consistently report that the game crashes often and suffers from a bug where pieces turn black, making matches unplayable. The battle animations are fun but repetitive, and the chess engine is weak compared to free alternatives. The online multiplayer has been dead for years.
