Final Legal Move
SteamFinal Legal Move is a survival tactics game built on chess movement with a twist.
You control a single white piece while black pieces keep closing in.

One stage may give you extra moves, another may flood the board with fresh enemies, and another may change your piece form every turn!

Last as long as possible while enemy waves scale up, hazard tiles appear, timers tighten, and fairy pieces enter the pool.

Earn coins, unlock new forms, and choose upgrades that reshape each run~
