About this game

The main feature: every turn you roll three dice, which dictate exactly which pieces you can move right now. You will have to adapt on the fly! Features: Unique gameplay: a perfect balance between strict tactics and the thrill of chance. Smart opponents: three difficulty levels (Beginner, Experienced, Master). Rating system: start with twelve hundred points and climb higher with every victory! Match settings: choose time controls from quick blitz games to infinite time.

How to play

The rules are based on the classic board game but feature key differences: Dice Roll: At the start of each turn, you roll three dice. Their faces show piece types (Pawn, Knight, Bishop, Rook, Queen, or King). Moves: You have up to three actions per turn. You can only move the pieces that appeared on your dice. The pieces themselves move according to standard rules. Passing: If there are no legal moves for the pieces rolled, your actions are lost and the turn passes to your opponent. How to win: There is no check or checkmate concept here. Your only goal is to capture the enemy King. The match ends with a juicy explosion right after the King is captured! Watch the timer: if the time runs out, you lose the match. Roll the dice and destroy the enemy King!
