About Chess Empire
Chess Empire is a tactical twist on chess where you earn gold, buy new pieces and upgrades, and have to reveal the fog of war to see your enemies.The core rules are familiar-you command the classic board and pieces-but now every turn earns you gold: 1 for moving, 2 for captures, and 3 for taking down upgraded pieces. Spend it in the shop to recruit new units or unlock powerful upgrades that transform how pieces play.Fog of war hides anything outside the vision range of your farthest pieces, making information as valuable as material. Position smartly, scout aggressively, and strike when your opponent is blind.
