About This Demo

Welcome to Solo Chess (formerly Pokerii), the cozy roguelike deckbuilder where every card is a chess piece, and every play is packed with strategy. Place cards on a 3×3 board, trigger unique piece effects, and build powerful combos to score points and clear wave after wave of tactical challenges.

Collect pets, choose food, and reshape your deck between rounds at a charming café filled with helpful upgrades and surprises.

Core Features

• Chess-Inspired Deckbuilding
  Start with a 16-card deck made of Pawns, Knights, Bishops, Rooks, Queens, and Kings—each with a unique scoring effect based on its traditional movement.

• Combo-Centric Scoring
  Hit specific rank sums like 4, 8, or 12 to trigger special combo bonuses. Align your plays and maximize your score with tight math and clever placement.

• Wave-Based Roguelike Runs
  Face an escalating series of challenges. Every board layout and card draw becomes a new puzzle to solve.

• Build Your Deck with Pets & Food
  Visit a cozy café between waves to adopt pets (passive bonuses), select food (temporary buffs), or use special tools to enhance your deck.
