About the Game

CHESS, BUT YOU SCORE 

Light on chess, big on score. Play lightning rounds of minichess with ever-increasing score targets. Each capture scores points. Each round earns you cash to upgrade in the shop.

BUILD SOMETHING BROKEN

Craft endless builds from score-bending floppy disks, piece-box-altering zodiac cards and levelling wonder cards. From pawn swarms, to sacrifices, to one-man-armies: choose your upgrades carefully to bend the board and ignite explosive combos.

VIBE

Jump into quick, punchy runs or lay back for long, play sessions.

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • A new way to play chess, without changing the move-set.

  • Crafted for chess novices and experts alike.

  • Quickfire rounds last minutes; complete runs in under an hour.

  • Endless combinations: each capture, upgrade, and choice shifts your run.

  • Satisfying progression: unlock new items, boards, challenges, and more.
