Chogue

About

Chogue is a strategy game that pits chess tactics against rogue-like dungeon crawling. Each piece moves according to traditional chess rules but navigates procedurally generated levels filled with traps, enemies, and loot. Players advance by capturing the enemy king while managing limited turns and resources. The game emphasizes careful planning as much as tactical combat with each move affecting progress through the dungeon’s shifting layout. The blend of structured chess play and unpredictable roguelike challenges sets Chogue apart. Its portability across PC, Mac, and mobile platforms lets players tackle campaigns on the go. With no multiplayer mode to distract, the focus stays on deepening mastery of its dual mechanics. The game’s 2018 release introduced a niche but dedicated audience to its inventive formula.
