Description
Play with living, battling characters! Combat Chess takes the basic chess game and adds an imaginative element for players bored with the simple "black vs. white" chess board. Beautifully done in rendered 3D graphics, Combat Chess adds stunning animation sequences during gameplay. Combat Chess is written to Grand Master standards and supports play against human opponents.

Combat Chess includes 3D rendered pieces from a medieval setting with fantasy elements. Pawns become dragons, Knights become real knights, the Black Knight’s turning your pawns to green jelly, and the Queen’s threatening to deliver a majestic head-butt to your king. With over 600 animation sequences, each piece includes "fidget" sequences for those moments you need to think. The animations include movement, combat, fidgets, and "check" moves. For the traditional minded, Combat Chess includes a traditional set, also 3D rendered. Two boards come with the game, each assigned to the genre of pieces.
  • Comprehensive tutorials for novice players
  • Fun, high-quality movement and combat animations
  • An attractive way to get young people hooked on chess and teach them the basics

Not for Chess Lovers

If you, as I am, love the game of chess, things such as animated pieces likely don't interest you. A game like this is more of diversion - just like buying outfit DLC for Super Street Fighter IV!! The way to get children interested in chess is by playing it front of them. Younger children are attracted to things they see their parents and/or siblings do. I can't recommend this game when a much better option is available at GOG, Chessmaster 9000. Furthermore, there is so much free computer chess-playing software that offers more than repetitive animations and pretty graphics. GOG once still for Good Old Games, we all know now that it is just GOG.com. Not all old games are good and worthy of resurrection. Combat Chess should have remained on the cutting room floor.

Unusual chess game

It's best chess game, which I ever played - war motives give good, nostalgic climates :)
