"kingbit" combines two of my favourite games: The Nightfall Incident and chess. I usually describe it to people by telling them: "it's like chess, but the pieces can take up multiple squares"

The game is quick to learn and quick to play... a full match is about 5-10 minutes.

If you like "Really Bad Chess", "Pawnbarian" or "Hero Academy" (RIP), I think you'll really enjoy it.

You can see an example of some game play here: https://v.redd.it/6i08fjezl5la1

Excited for you try it out! And more excited to play some of you (Game Center: emehex)

i suck at chess, but this is lovely!
Same! I like how it's a little easier to plan out moves and set traps with this game...
