Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Puzzle & Chess is a chess-themed puzzle game where you click pieces to move them to predetermined locations while avoiding collisions, but players universally criticize it for being a tedious trial-and-error experience with poor design. The core mechanic of hidden piece movements makes the game feel like guesswork rather than actual puzzle-solving, though enabling the optional "show lines" feature improves it somewhat by revealing paths.
Always fun for chess enthusiasts to play around with chess pieces, even in this mediocre game. [h2]'Chess' 'Puzzle' [/h2] In Puzzle & Chess you have to move a certain piece to a goal without collisions with your own pieces. The movement of every piece is predetermined, which is unknown for the player. So standard the game is mostly a trial and error memory game. There is also a 'show lines' option, that reveals the path the pieces travel. [h2]Conclusions [/h2] Frankly the game is pretty bad. The fact that it's with chess pieces makes it kind of fun. And that's the thing, I enjoyed this game. The game does need the lines enabled to make it somewhat of a puzzle game. Without it the game is horrific. 60/100 [table] [tr] [td] [i]More reviews at [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/39546715/]Omnivore Gamer[/url], games that are easy to control (for handicapped gamers).

This "chess" "puzzle" game is just a grinding simulator, entire idea is to move a chess piece from point A to point B while there are other pieces in your way. This idea on its own is already boring until you realize pieces only move in the direction they want to!!11 found this helpful
I proudly present you [b]by far the worst puzzle game[/b] I found on Steam - featuring both a terrible concept and a very poor implementation of it. Forget chess. Every piece moves to a strictly predefined point upon clicking it. You have no control over where stuff goes, you just click a piece and it goes wherever it is predefined to go. You have to make sure that no pieces collide. However, instead of applying any logic to it whatsoever you just have to click every piece in a particular order to solve every level. In the beginning it's the dumbest trial-and-error process as you click a piece, immediately collide with another, and restart the level. There's an annoying buzz to it, and you must then manually click the restart button in the corner of the screen. You try over and over again to memorize where each piece is predefined to move, then memorize the correct order of clicking them to solve the level. Terrible, just terrible. But then it gets worse as the pieces start to have not just predefined locations but predefined [i]paths[/i] that they take. It is at this point I discovered the show-paths button which made the game a lot easier... if not trivial honestly. But alas! …6 found this helpful
I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of y…3 found this helpful
nah, this ain't it. the pieces only move the way they're pre-determined so you just randomly click until you either fail or it works. if there's a rook, for example, you can't move it cardinally. it's preset to move only one direction when you click it. dumb2 found this helpful
Game description: "Click on pieces, solve the puzzles". How does that work? Game does not tell you that chess pieces, when clicked, move to a predefined location. That can work, but the game must show the path and the final destination for every figure. Right now it is too much memorizing the routes and a lot of brute force to find the solution.
