About Chess Racer

Look 3 moves ahead!
A chess racing game in which it's always your turn to move.
Grab each opposing piece in your way and get points according to the piece value.
You get +9 for queens, +5 for rooks, +3 for bishops and knights, and +1 for pawns.

You need to look ahead and think about your moves, but you also need to be quick and move as fast as possible, before your time runs out.

There are two very important rules in the game that relate to how chess pawn moves.
1. You can go forward ONLY if there are NO opposing pieces in front of you.
2. You can go diagonally left or right ONLY if there IS an opposing piece there.

There are two difficulties to choose from: Easy and Hard.

Easy mode is recommended for beginners and those less familiar with chess. It is also recommended for quicker games. In the easy mode, you have the freedom to choose any path (but keep in mind the 2 rules above) and never face a dead end and tricky choices. Basically, the easy mode is about capturing the pieces with a better score points value.

Hard mode is recommended for slower-paced games or for intermediate and advanced players as it is required to plan your moves ahead. If you are not careful, it is easy to fall into a trap with no possible moves. Just because you can capture a queen, doesn't mean it's the best option. Look 3 moves ahead and choose the best move!

Different time controls. You can play a short 5-second game plus a second per move, for example. Or you can choose a 10 minute game if you don't want to rush your moves.

There are customization options for the game colors. You can choose if you want to play as black, white, yellow, red and so on. You can also choose the colors for the opposing pieces. The game board now comes in 8 different styles. You can even change the color of the menu.

There is also a web build available at tymski.itch.io for PC.

Have fun!
