Works on phones and computers

You play chess against the computer on easy, medium or hard, against a friend on the same screen, or sit back and watch two engines play each other while the camera drifts around the hall. Every piece is an animated soldier from one of three armies, the Ivory Kingdom, the Sun Empire or Napoleon's Grande Armée, and the board can stand in six battlegrounds from a sun temple to a siege at dusk. Optional clocks, take-backs and a move ledger you can copy as PGN round it out. Works on phones and computers.

How the creator made it

The creator says the first playable version took about two hours, going from the idea to game art, then 3D models and code. They built it with Rork and used player feedback to add features such as queued moves. The creator says they later got the Three.js game running on mobile through Expo with one prompt.
