Blue Gingham Chess
A Storybook Chess Adventure
$0.99 · Designed for iPad
Step into a storybook world reimagined as a strategy game. Blue Gingham Chess brings the timeless game of chess to life on a fully sculpted 3D board, with specially-designed characters and rich, painterly detail — all inspired by the spirit of a beloved 1900 American fairy tale.
Play across a golden, brick-patterned board framed by rolling poppy fields and a glimmering skyline. Every piece has its own personality: a farm girl in silver shoes, a loyal little dog, a straw-stuffed figure in search of a mind of his own, a metal-hearted woodsman, and many more waiting to be discovered on both sides of the board.
