About The Game
Chess, but all your army has gone over to the white side, leaving you with nothing but your royal shotgun and your wounded pride. Carried by your dark folly, you decide it's time to teach those white pieces to fear the Shotgun King.
Every turn, you may either move your king or shoot at enemy pieces, after what you'll need to move again to reload your shotgun. Avoid checkmate and kill the enemy king to complete the floor. After each floor, you may choose between two random combinations of one upgrade for you and one upgrade for the other side. Choose wisely and keep on winning floors and you just may get your kingdom back.
The game features many unlockable cards, 20 ranks of difficulty, over 100 achievements to complete, an endless mode, an arcade-style chase mode, a new charnier mode where you go raiding the kingdom, mod support, and free content updates.
Runs may take ~20 minutes to complete.
Play with mouse and keyboard, or with a game controller.
Plays great on the Steam Deck!
