A minimalist battle of movement, memory, and mind. Inspired by the timeless strategy of Chess, Knight Paths distills tactical gameplay to its purest form. Two players. One knight each. No second chances.
Knight Paths
SteamIn Knight Paths, every match begins with a choice.
During the Mulligan Phase, you decide where your knight enters the board—shaping your entire strategy from the very first move. Once the game begins, players alternate turns just like in chess, with the white side moving first.
But there’s a twist:
Every square can only be used once.
Once visited—by you or your opponent—that square is gone forever.
The only way back to a square… is through your opponent.
Easy to pick up, but each match becomes a test of foresight and control.
With no pieces to hide behind and no moves to undo, Knight Paths is about:
Every move shapes the battlefield. Every decision matters.
No distractions—just you, your opponent, and the board.
Victory comes when you:
Or accept a draw—when neither side can claim the advantage.
