Dunchess
Steam
Dunchess is a turn-based dungeon crawler where you play chess pieces. Different dungeons present never-boring challenges to overcome while you protect the king and try to remove the enemy pieces. ♟️ Play the chess pieces in different dungeon levels!

We keep the mechanics that you already know how to use and if you don't know how, don't worry! The game is pretty intuitive, showing you what are your possible movements when you hover pieces 😉 ⚔️ Be aware of the new unique tiles that change the dungeon as you play!

We're introducing new tiles to the dungeons, in the case above 👆 it's an activator to elevate bridges. And this is just the start! More will be submitted as we update the game. 🧠 Plan your strategy and do not let your king be captured!

Forget about the check, this is a no-regret move type of game. Make a wrong move and pay the price for it 😈 🖌️ Make your own maps!

Did we mention that you can create your own maps?! Also, publish them and play others!
