More about this game
Revenge Chess: Chain Reaction modifies standard chess by giving every piece a death rattle. When a piece is captured, it immediately strikes back at the most valuable enemy in its normal attack range. This can trigger a chain reaction of up to 12 captures across the board. The goal remains the same: checkmate or capture the opponent's king. You play as White against the computer, navigating these explosive trades until one king falls or the game ends in a stalemate.
Tips
- Before capturing, check if the enemy piece can hit your valuable pieces with its death rattle.
- Use the death rattle to your advantage by positioning your pieces to trigger chain reactions.
- Shield Knights (pawns) that reach the opposite end of the board ascend into Ember Queens.
