King's Gambit: Chess Survival

Chess survival meets roguelike action.

Enemies swarm from every direction. You move one square at a time. Capture them before they capture you. This is chess survival: tactical arcade gameplay where strategy beats luck and combo chains win runs.

How Chess Survival Works

Rooks charge straight lines. Knights jump L-shapes. Bishops cut diagonals. Pawns block and guard. Learn the chess patterns and the survival puzzle clicks instantly.

Chess player? You'll read the board faster. Never played? The rules make sense in one run. The tactical challenge stays the same.

Combo Chains

Capture enemies back-to-back without stepping on empty squares. Each capture raises your multiplier. String together a 7-chain to trigger Royal Frenzy—the ultimate survival arcade moment.

Royal Frenzy Mode

Go invincible. Enemies freeze. Clear the entire board. Every roguelike run builds toward this. Perfect Frenzy clears multiply your score by 2.25x.

Magnet – Pull all shields and lootboxes to you
