    Description

    Chaos Chess is a genre-mashing game that turns a common chessboard into a dynamic and exciting board game. The core rules of the game remain, but humorous cards allow players to break the rules of chess to do fantastic stuff like

    • Make a piece move like a different piece
    • Move an opponents piece for them
    • Freeze a piece so it can't move
    • Send a piece to or from "Limbo"

    And much more. There are counters to track permanent and temporary effects. Eight new pieces included with this version highlight how flexible the game of chess really is - all while punching the game up to the next level. Pieces include

    • Anti-Pawn
    • Dragon
    • Flame Snake
    • Frankenpawn
    • Last Pawn Standing
    • Many Colored Animals
    • Pinball Wizard
    • Superpawn

    Players can play cards on their turn by spending cards from their hand. Their opponent can "counter" any card played by discarding three cards. Players must balance card play with chess to achieve checkmate.
