Chess War

Chess War is a move-limited board puzzle about guiding a chess piece past obstacles to a red flag.

Shift parts of the board when obstacles block the route, but conserve the allowed moves.

Chess War uses a chess piece inside an obstacle puzzle whose destination is a red flag. Movement follows the supplied rules, and every action matters because the number of moves is limited.

About Chess War

Obstacles can interrupt the route across the board. The puzzle allows half of the board to move left or right, creating a way around those barriers so the chess piece can continue toward the flag without exhausting the move allowance.

Objective: Move the chess piece through the obstacles and reach the red flag within the move limit.

Core loop

  • Move the chess piece, shift half of the board when an obstacle blocks the route, and advance toward the flag.

How to play Chess War

  1. Move the chess piece with the mouse according to the game rules.
  2. Shift half of the board left or right to work around an obstacle.
  3. Reach the red flag before using too many moves.
