About Squid Chess

What is Squid Chess?

Squid Chess is a fast-paced real-time chess-based cast'em'up. Have you ever been playing Chess, then you thought, wow, I could play this for my entire life! That's what those Squids did. You know the saying "LOVE OF THE GAME"? Well, those Squids loved that game TOO much. In the distant future, beyond the extinction of the human race, the Squids fused themselves to the deep-sea cables lying underneath the ocean floor. They got really into the Internet in general, but mostly, they got really into those online competitive Chess games. Unfortunately, spending untold eons playing internet Chess carries with it some severe psychic de-buffs. Those Squids are traumatized by what they've seen. You wouldn't even believe it. I won't even do the injustice of explaining it here in this old Steam description. You'll just have to play it. Then you'll get what I mean.Anyway, it's your turn to take on the Chess-playing Squids of the distant future. Enter the magical death-match. Calm the Nightmare. Transform the Alchemist. It's all up to you...

Exciting Features:

  • Real-time Chess-based game-play. No more waiting for your turn!
  • Four hand-crafted worlds!
  • 100+ upgrades!
  • 40+ hand-crafted battles!
  • 10+ chess pieces!
  • Many, many magical potions.
In the distant future, Squids play Chess, and you must transform the Vile Alchemist. No, they do not play so-called 'regulation chess', they are Squids. The rules were made to be broken!

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
