From the Steam store

PLAN. CHAIN. BREAK THE BOARD.

You only have 10 moves. Every capture counts for scoring.

Build huge combo chains, multiply your score, and push your run as far as possible.

Upgrade powerful passives, discover broken synergies, and survive bosses that completely twist the rules of the game.

CREATE MASSIVE COMBO CHAINS

Set up the perfect sequence and watch the board explode into score multipliers.

Every move matters:

miss a capture → the chain breaks

plan correctly → massive rewards

The better your route, the crazier the combo.

BUILD BROKEN SYNERGIES

Create runs focused on:

combo extensions

piece specialization

movement changing upgrades

zone based scoring boosts

more enemy pieces

more moves

end combo effects

Adapt your strategy and discover overpowered combinations.

BOSSES CHANGE THE RULES

Boss encounters introduce mechanics that disrupt your strategy and force you to adapt on the fly.

Every few stages, the game changes.

Here are 3 bosses that you will encounter in runs:

Pattern Breaker - The cooldown for pieces is increased by 4

Frozen Knights - All knights are frozen and they cannot move

The Orderbound - You can only move your pieces in this order (except Queens and Kings): Bishop, Pawn, Rook, Knight

HIGH RISK - HIGH SCORE

Choose King Challenges that apply permanent drawbacks for the entire run.

The harder the challenge, the greater the reward.
