Chess'Extra

About

Chess'Extra revamps the classic strategy game with a 10x10 board and two fresh pieces that shake up traditional tactics. The Priest moves like a bishop but can heal allied units, while the Assassin sneaks through enemy lines to strike from the shadows. These additions force players to rethink positioning and resource management, blending familiar chess mechanics with new layers of complexity. Matches unfold over multiple turns, demanding careful planning and adaptability as both sides vie for control of the expanded battlefield. The game supports solo challenges, online duels, and local split-screen play, making it easy to jump into quick matches or deep strategic sessions. Community feedback highlights the balanced yet unpredictable nature of its mechanics, with many noting the Priest and Assassin add just enough novelty without overwhelming newcomers. Released in 2020 by JulFlux, it’s a streamlined update to a timeless formula that keeps games feeling fresh across multiple sessions.
