✦ AI summary

Chess Knights: High Noon is plagued by serious technical problems that undermine the experience, including unresponsive input detection that becomes particularly problematic during timed duel modes, severe performance optimization issues that cause excessive CPU usage and thermal throttling, and concerns about it being an asset flip with questionable origins. Players largely do not recommend the game due to these fundamental issues that appear unlikely to be addressed, with only minimal positive sentiment amid widespread reports of the game failing to run properly.

Unfortunately Chess Knights: High Noon suffers from severe input issues. Getting the game to recognise that the mouse is over a particular tile, before it will accept clicks is a constant problem which can take several seconds per tile. Now if this was entirely a 'slow' turn based puzzle this flaw could possibly be overlooked, however the duel mode expects rapid selection of tiles before a very short timer expires. I've tried playing with vsync on and off in case that made a difference to the input issues, but it didn't help. Not recommended with these input issues, which I doubt will ever be fixed for a game that's approaching five years since release.

[b][quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote][/b] Chess Knights: High Noon is a Unity Asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Minimol Games, took the [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/historic/polygon-western-low-poly-3d-art-by-synty-112212]Polygon Western - Low Poly 3D Art Pack[/url] Unity Store tutorial/demo/game asset pack from the real developers, Synty Studios, changed the name, and dumped the result onto Steam. They're attempting to scam people into buying this, so they can get your money for someone else's work. It gets worse... "Polygon Western - Low Poly 3D Art Pack" has also been shamelessly dumped on Steam by other asset flippers apart from Minimol Games: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1442380]Book of Shadows[/url]", asset flipped by Enoops [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/862990]Survive The West[/url]", asset flipped by Deverinos [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/848010]Find Your Way[/url]", asset flipped by LillyWelland Inc./OnBlind [/list] Take a look for yourself... these are all [i]exactly the same game![/i] The deve…

Nett gemacht, aber nicht besonders gut programmiert.

Has big performance issues It's rare to see a game that when focused makes CPU go from 45°C to 80/90°C (and even throttling) immediately, and when alt-tabbed, goes to normal temperature in a few seconds. Don't expect "graphics" settings nor smooth gameplay. I know that I should show my specs here or something, so I'll say that I can run Cyberpunk2077 on around "recommended" settings. And let's be honest here. This game isn't close to CP2077... or maybe it is - on a performance/optimization field.
