Imagine playing a chess game where a new rule gets added every few turns. it could be surprising, and unexpected at first, but as the game goes on, it becomes a little more... chaotic!

How to Play

on your turn, click on the chess piece you want to move and click on the space to where you want to move them.

Chaotic Chess pieces play exactly like regular chess pieces.

Pawns: move once and diagonal when attacking.

Knights: move in L shapes.

Bishops: move diagonally.

Rooks: move front back, left and right.

Queen: move anywhere no matter the distance.

King: move only once at any direction.


you can also move around the chess board ...

Controls


E/Q or right click to rotate 

ASWD or hover mouse at edge to move, 

mouse scroll to zoom in/out



Examples of sudden Chaos:

there are plenty of unexpected triggers you must discover yourself, but here are some examples to expect...

Glitchy board: changes the tiles and pieces into a glitchy purple effect

Pacifist pieces: randomly selected chess pieces cannot take over other pieces.

Love the idea of the game! It's more of a party game than anything and I can see something like this become a hit with the right exposure (GothamChess or something lol)

Fun little chess game with a plot twist. here is my experience so far

1.play chess normally

2.entire board become allergic for colorblind people

3.my knight somehow got eaten by a THICC fish

4.my useless bishop become Harry potter

5.there are no check warning mechanic yet, so I have to use my queen to slap enemy king across the board to check mate.

final score: "MY knight got VORE by a fish!"/ 10.
