CHESS/RUPT: Arcade Chess

Daily Puzzles & Endless Runs

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Survive collapsing boards, daily challenges, Crown Trials, and battle modes in a turn-based arcade game inspired by chess. Move a familiar chess piece. Capture another to change what you can do. Then find a way off a board that is breaking beneath you. CHESS/RUPT turns the moves you already know into fast, tactical runs. Move as the king, queen, rook, bishop, knight, and pawn; transform when you capture; and survive while tiles crack, collapse, and reshape the board. Start with a free Daily Challenge or Daily Puzzle. Everyone gets the same rules that day, so you can solve it your way, protect a streak, and compare scores on optional Game Center leaderboards. Want a longer run? Crown Trials, Puzzle Mode, Free Play, and battle modes turn familiar chess movement into new problems: * Survive a shrinking board and escalating enemy pressure * Plan captures through portals, frozen pieces, and changing movement * Claim territory, chase signals, outlast a snake, or be the last piece standing * Play short sessions offline, then submit optional Game Center scores Daily Challenge and Daily Puzzle are free. One optional, one-time Unlimited Plays purchase unlocks all non-daily modes. No ads, subscriptions, consumable currency, or random loot.
