About the Game

Tale of Honor is a one of a kind game that turns the classic, turn based game of Chess into a Realtime Chess adventure.

Here you control single chess piece on boards of various sizes with an objective to reach destination, while the area is guarded by enemy chess pieces that move and attack in Real Time. So, the enemies will kill you the moment they spot you in their movement zone as per Chess rules, unlike turned based chess, they will not let you finish a move.

The game provides another dimension of strategy by allowing players to gather abilities and power ups to be used in unique ways to manipulate the board in their favor.

Battle epic bosses that will make your journey challenging and more fun. Each area houses multiple mini-bosses and a main boss. All bosses have out of the board abilities that allow them to manipulate the board in the favor of the enemies, providing an extra dimension of challenge.

Apart from facing the enemies on the board, you'll also have to keep an eye on off board weapons that maybe shooting arrows or flames in your direction. Making timing your movements a key part of your gameplay. Thus apart from knowing where to move you'll also be looking at when to move.
