Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Chesstrix is a unique puzzle game that fuses chess strategy with falling-block action. Chess pieces drop from the top of the board — position them with left and right controls, then tap highlighted target cells to capture enemy pieces and score points.
HOW TO PLAY
• Pieces fall from the top with gravity
• Use ◀ ▶ controls to move pieces left and right
• Valid capture targets light up on the board in real time
• Tap a highlighted target to instantly drop your piece and capture
• Score points based on the value of captured pieces
• Watch out for mines — they cost you points!
FEATURES
• Intuitive tap-to-target capture mechanic
• Real chess piece movement rules (pawns, knights, bishops, rooks, queens, kings)
• Progressive difficulty — the board gets trickier as you advance
• Sound effects scaled by piece value for satisfying feedback
• Haptic feedback on captures and landings
• Clean, modern visual design
• Lightweight and fast — no ads, no data collection
SCORING
• Each chess piece is worth different points based on its traditional value
• Chain captures and strategic positioning earn bonus rewards
• Mines deduct points — avoid them or plan around them
• Compete against your own high score and climb the difficulty curve
Chesstrix is perfect for chess enthusiasts looking for a fresh twist, puzzle game fans who love quick-thinking action, and anyone who enjoys a satisfying blend of strategy and reflexes. No internet required — play anywhere, anytime.
