About Chess Madness: Mini Games
Chess Madness is a collection of chess mini games that mix chess with other genres - arcade, tower defense and logic puzzle - while keeping real chess rules at their core. Pieces move and attack exactly as in chess, so every game trains your chess vision: seeing which squares are attacked, which lines are blocked and where a piece can go.
♔ KING'S CLIMB - CHESS ARCADE
The board scrolls down, and your white king has to climb to the finish before it falls behind.
• Black pieces stand still but attack like in chess - pawns, knights, bishops, rooks and queens
• Step on an attacked square, and the defender shoots your king down
• Capture black pawns, knights, bishops and rooks next to your king for points
• White pieces block attack lines and help you through
• Gates: a whole rank walled off with a single door - capture the piece in it to pass
• Higher levels bring a faster board, more fire and more gates
• Every level is generated fresh, and every level is guaranteed to be passable
♕ DEFEND THE KING - CHESS TOWER DEFENSE
Wedges of black pawns march down the board toward your king. Your pieces fire on their own - you decide where they stand.
• Your king and queen start every level; pieces shoot along their chess lines, knights shoot in L-shapes
• Move your pieces like in chess to open and close lines of fire
• Order a piece to focus on one target
• Earn coins for each kill and drop a knight, bishop, rook or queen onto the board
• Black pawns heal each other, and a pawn that reaches the first rank turns into a knight that hunts your king
• Waves get thicker and faster with every level
♘ KNIGHT'S TOUR - CLASSIC CHESS PUZZLE
Guide a knight across the board so it visits every square exactly once.
• Choose the starting square yourself - from some squares the tour is impossible
• The board grows from 4×3 to 5×5, 6×5, 6×6 and on, without end
• A tour exists on every board
• Finish on a square a knight's move away from the start - a closed tour - and double your score
• Step back or start over - no lives, no time limit
⭐ LEVELS, STARS AND RECORDS
• Endless levels in every game
• Earn up to 3 stars per level and replay levels to collect more
• Chain levels into a run and beat your best run score
• Jump back to any level you have opened
📺 PHONE, TABLET AND ANDROID TV
Play by touch on a phone or tablet, or with a remote on Android TV.
Chess Madness is for chess players who want something different from a regular game, and for anyone who likes arcade, strategy and brain teasers.
