About Gigachess

Gigachess screenshot 1

Gigachess is a puzzle board hero defense. With your custom party of Knights, Rooks and Bishops, defend against the relentless waves of enemy Pawns running a blitz for the board's bottom. The seemingly unbreakable formations and constant downward march of your foe transform chess from slow burn to tactical rush in this deeply addictive single-player remix of turn-based strategy's ultimate grandmaster. How long can you survive the Pawn onslaught?
