About This Game

Pixel Chess Idle RPG takes the timeless rules of chess and smashes them together with the addicting loop of an incremental RPG. Forget about stalemates and draws—in this game, your pieces have Health, Attack Damage, and Gold generation stats.

This is not a test of grandmaster theory; it is a battle of brute force, economic management, and infinite scaling.

⚔️ NOT YOUR GRANDPA'S CHESS

There is no checkmate here. To win, you must destroy the enemy King or wipe out their entire army. Pieces move according to classic chess rules, but when they attack, they deal damage based on their stats.

• Health Bars: Pieces don't die in one hit (unless you are powerful enough!).

• Tactical Weaknesses: Exploit the damage cycle! Pawns deal 2x Damage to Bishops, Bishops crush Rooks, and Knights hunt Queens.

• Promotions: March your Pawns to the end of the board to instantly promote them into fresh Queens.

📈 INFINITE PROGRESSION

Start with a lone King and a handful of Pawns. Earn gold for every move you make and every enemy you slay. Spend your wealth between rounds in the Upgrade Shop.

• Buy Your Army: Purchase up to 8 Pawns, 2 Rooks, 2 Bishops, 2 Knights, and a Queen to fill your ranks.

• Mastery System: Level up specific units. Turn your humble Pawns into tanky frontline warriors or your Bishops into glass cannons.

• Special Abilities: Unlock game-changing skills like Rook Blast (splash damage), Bishop Snipe (range-based damage bonus), and Vampirism to heal on attack.

💤 IDLE TO VICTORY

Don't want to calculate every move? Unlock Auto-Play and watch your army dismantle the enemy AI in real-time.

• Automated Grinding: Upgrade your Auto-Play speed to lightning-fast turns.

• Passive Income: Unlock abilities that generate gold even when you aren't moving.

• Auto-Start: Set the game to loop rounds endlessly while you sit back and watch the gold pile up.

🔄 REBIRTH & PRESTIGE

The difficulty scales endlessly. When the enemy Kings become too strong, perform a Time Travel Rebirth. Reset your level to gain Rebirth Tokens, which are used to buy permanent, game-breaking multipliers to Gold and Damage, allowing you to push further than ever before.

FEATURES

• Retro Aesthetic: Crisp pixel art graphics with a CRT vignette style.

• Chiptune Audio: A synthesized soundtrack and SFX engine generated in real-time.

• Achievement Hunting: Over 20 achievements to unlock, ranging from "First Blood" to "Pawn Mower."

• No Microtransactions: Everything is unlocked through gameplay and strategy.
