What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Checkmate Kings is praised by many players for its solid, fast-paced gameplay, sleek presentation, and accessibility that captures chess's appeal without requiring deep expertise, making it especially enjoyable in local multiplayer with friends. However, some players report significant frustration with couch co-op controller detection issues that prevent proper two-player offline play, and opinions vary on whether it authentically represents chess or diverges too far from the traditional game.
Crazy idea but it works, the gameplay is very solid and fast and graphics and ui are sleek. I’ve always been interested in chess but it feels so intimidating, Checkmate Kings is able to capture the game’s aesthetic but without needing a phd to have a blast. Grab a friend and you’ve got lots of hours of fun! I’ve been playing with my friends nonstop since we bought it, and we just can’t stop.2 found this helpful
The best chess game to ever exist1 found this helpful
Maybe I missed the point, but this game is not fun, nor is it remotely like chess.1 found this helpful
Super fun game to play with a friend! Once you master a little bit the main mechanics, it becomes very satisfying! And I love the art of the main characters! :D1 found this helpful
this game has really awful multiplayer controller issues. When trying to play offline couch play between two people, for some reason it will register both player 1 and player 2 as just... player 1. I can't play against another person at all, and we tried changing controllers, going into options, and restarting the game. Strongly don't recommend this game if you're looking for a local multiplayer experience.
Very fun 1v1 bullet hell game with a chess theme
