King’s Skirmish is a chess-inspired turn-based strategy game where every capture attempt triggers a duel between pieces.
The board follows familiar chess movement rules, but with key twists: there are no checks or en passant captures, and you can even target your own pieces to send them back to their starting square, opening new paths and repositioning your strategy.
When two pieces clash, the battle moves into a turn-based combat system where each piece type has its own unique move, stats, and tactical role. A well-timed ability can completely change the outcome of a fight.
Play against bots, challenge a friend in local multiplayer, or progress through Story Mode.
