About the Game

- Grandmaster's Gambit is just leaving the prototyping phase -

  • Do you like chess?
  • What about deckbuilding?
  • Maybe a little bit of survivors?

Prepare yourself to save the Kingdom from the 8 Grandmasters



You start small; 10 movement cards & 10 attack cards, and they're all pawns!

As you venture out in search of each Grandmaster you'll encounter many chess pieces, all trying to put you in 'Check'. Capturing enemies allows you to upgrade your cards, bringing your decks closer and closer to unimaginable power!

Keep an eye out for vendors, for they're there to give you new abilities, power-up your stats, and even merge your cards into powerful uber creations!
