About This Demo

A note from Gliding Knight Games:

This demo is single-player only. Gliding Knight Games intends to update the demo with multiplayer features at a later date. While multiplayer features are absent, you will not have to create a third-party account to access all the demo's features.

Collect cards, build decks, and battle fierce opponents in Top Check, a roguelike deckbuilder and card game inspired by the classic game of chess. This demo features the first stage of the game's Roguelike Run game mode, where you will have to use your deckbuilding prowess to defeat challenges of increasing difficulty. In the process you'll encounter many unique pieces and abilities, and only the best strategists will emerge victorious. Do you have what it takes to reach the top?

Utilize powerful action cards to manipulate the state of the board to your advantage.  Will you devise a strategy around copying important pieces?  Or perhaps dominate the board using synergy between pieces of the same type.  Whatever you choose, the possibilities are sure to captivate your inner strategist.

This demo has plenty of features to keep you engaged, including:

• Rich tactical combat

• Constructed deckbuilding

• A 1v1 AI Battle game mode

• A dedicated roguelike game mode

• A tutorial to guide you as a new player

• Tons of pieces and unique abilities (75 in demo)

• Cosmetic options to personalize your in-game experience (some options are excluded from the demo)
