Mechanical Chess: Real-time
"Who wins: a chess grandmaster's strategy or a pro-gamer's reflexes?" In Mechanical Chess, you need both. Shattering the old rules, we've removed turns for pure real-time battles. Your mind is the strategist, your hands are the weapon. Enter the arena and prove your mastery!

The rules of chess have been broken.
Victory is no longer decided by a single, careful move, but by split-second decisions and god-like control. Mechanical Chess is a fast and furious real-time chess that has thrown off the shackles of turn-based gameplay.
Forget taking turns. In Mechanical Chess, every piece moves in real-time at your command. The strategic depth of chess collides with the intense micro-control of an RTS. Control multiple pieces at once to flank your opponent, dodge incoming attacks with lightning-fast reflexes, and shatter their king's defense before they can react.
