Chess Frontline

This is chess where a move isn't a quiet tap of wood — it's a salvo. The board is a field map with commander's markings. Instead of pieces, two armies: soldiers, officers, armored cars and tanks. Every capture is a battle scene: infantry raise rifles, turrets swing around, grenades fly in an arc, the camera dives into the explosion.

How to play

The rules are classical chess: checkmate the enemy king to win. 1. Select your piece with a tap or a click — available moves light up. 2. Press a highlighted square — your army carries out the order. If an enemy stands there, a battle begins: a rifle shot, a grenade or a tank salvo. 3. Before the game, pick your side and the AI difficulty. Camera: — on phones: drag a finger across the empty field next to the board to rotate it; pinch with two fingers to zoom; — on PC: rotate the board by moving the mouse with the left button held over the empty field; use the mouse wheel to zoom. Stuck in a tough position? Tap Hint and the game will show the strongest move. Made a mistake? Undo it. Got checkmated? Second Chance rewinds the game two moves back. Wins against the AI earn leaderboard points: an easy opponent gives 0.5, a strong one a full point. Climb the rankings and become the marshal of the board!
