About this game
Chessformer is a challenging puzzle arcade game that blends chess mechanics with platforming. Your movements are confined to the chess piece you're given, such as a rook moving in straight lines or a bishop diagonally. Navigate through each stage by using these unique abilities to reach the king. The game starts simple but quickly ramps up in difficulty, requiring creative problem-solving. Developed by Robert Alvarez, it offers 48 levels of satisfying puzzles with clean visuals and sound. Playable on web browsers and Steam, it's a fresh twist on classic chess logic.
How to play Chessformer: Each piece follows its traditional movement rules—rooks move in straight lines, bishops diagonally, and so on. The twist is that you navigate sideways, so moving a piece upward also shifts its position downward on the board. Click or tap on a piece to select it, then click to move it. Use these movements to overcome obstacles and reach the king in each level. The early levels teach you the basics, but later stages demand careful planning and creative thinking to progress.
