Think you know chess? Try it in 3D — then add mana and deckbuilding.

ChessFinity’s free Steam demo is live. Play it now and wishlist for Early Access.

DEMO (available now)

The demo is a focused solo slice so you can try the core systems right away:

• Solo play (vs AI or self-play)

• 5 modes: Classic, 3D Modded, Mana, Co-op, and FFA presets

• A small sample of puzzles + mini-games

EARLY ACCESS (late April)

Early Access expands beyond the demo with:

• Online multiplayer (and ongoing improvements)

• More presets in every mode (more boards, rules, and matchups)

• More puzzles + mini-games

• Expanded customisation tools

Pick a preset and play immediately, or dive into Mana Chess — a deckbuilding mode where your pieces come from a deck and you spend mana to deploy them.

At a glance (Early Access)

• Mana Chess deckbuilding (pieces as cards + mana to deploy)

• 3D chess variants on unusual boards (including classic variants)

• Strange new pieces and wild matchups

• Mini-games: puzzles + routing/touring challenges + chaotic FFA modes

• Play solo vs AI, hot-seat, and online multiplayer (still improving)

Mana Chess: deckbuilding meets chess

In Mana Chess, you don’t start with a fixed army — you build a deck of pieces and deploy them using mana. It creates a different kind of chess: more tactical surprises, more comeback potential, and far more variety between games.

Mana highlights:

• Choose from mana presets (single level or multiple levels, with or without walls)

• Build a deck that includes powerful new pieces

• Deploy pieces by spending mana, with configurable limits (including up to 3 moves per turn in Mana)

• Set king placement and deployment zones for custom Mana scenarios

3D chess variants & weird boards

ChessFinity includes curated 3D presets and variants — some well-known, some deliberately strange.

Examples you’ll find inside:

• Classic 3D variants like Raumschach

• Experimental boards (small boards, long boards, boards with holes, “bridge” layouts, walled layouts)

• Scenario-style rulesets (for example: king with only pawns, king with only bishops, asymmetric matchups like dragon vs knights)

Strange new pieces

Beyond standard chess pieces, ChessFinity includes new piece types designed for multi-level boards and variant rulesets — creating threats and tactics you won’t see in normal chess.

Mini-games & challenges

Want something faster, weirder, or more puzzle-like than a full match?

• 3D chess puzzles

• Routing & touring challenges

• Chaotic FFA modes — including rule sets where the board can “rot” (disappear) as players move

Play modes (and a quick note on multiplayer)

• Solo vs yourself or AI

• 3+ player options (including team formats like 2v2)

• Online multiplayer is available, but it’s still being improved — for the smoothest experience right now, solo vs AI / hot-seat is the best starting point

Custom games (limited, single-player focused)

ChessFinity includes custom setup tools, with limits (and currently focused on solo play).

What you can customise:

• Board shape & size

• Choose mode: Modded Chess or Mana Chess

• Piece placement for Modded Chess

• King placement + deployment zones for Mana Chess

• Number of players

• Time limit per turn

• Move limits per turn (Mana: up to 3)

• Deck building (Mana only)

UI & quality-of-life tools

• Tutorials for Mana, 3D chess, and basic board control

• Move log + match replay

• Check piece movement patterns and threatened positions

• Switch between 2D and 3D views

• Board coordinates

• Adjust spacing between levels for better visibility on tall boards
