A calm, methodical puzzle game where you carefully maneuver chess knights across a board to rescue pieces without triggering enemies.

What players say
Players say this is a casual puzzle game using only the knight's L-shaped move, not a chess simulator. The campaign is short at about 2.5 hours, and difficulty varies wildly from simple to frustrating spikes. Some find it relaxing, others call it boring and unchallenging.
