Press release:
RedDeerGames (the creators of well-received cyberpunk arcade puzzle game “Cyber Protocol”) and Platige Image (a legendary animation studio) are today very happy and excited to announce that they have joined forces to release their fantasy-themed chess game “Brawl Chess” for PC, Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch (“Brawl Chess” is coming to Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch on November 26th, and the PC-version will be released sometime in 2021).
Are you ready to become a champion? Choose your hero and challenge other players in this family-friendly game with a lively cartoon style. Train your brain and bond with your loved ones at the same time.
In this fantasy world, one of the brave heroes leads your chess army to victory. Choose between a mysterious fairy, a dangerous dwarf, a clever elf, a brave prince, and many more. Thanks to them each round turns into an epic adventure.
The graphics for Brawl Chess were designed by Platige Image (Oscar-nominated The Cathedral, The Witcher Netflix series, cinematic trailers for League of Legends, Halo 5 and Cyberpunk 2077). They filled the chessboard with various heroes and a lot of humor.
Cartoon visuals make the game accessible to everyone. What’s going on there! Arrows flying above heads and swords breaking in the heat of battle. Or maybe you prefer classic chess? You can always switch to traditional pieces.
Brawl Chess connects generations in a multiplayer mode, but single player will also appeal to players of all ages. There are 5 levels of difficulty. The first is great for children to learn. The fifth is suited for chess veterans who are looking for a serious challenge.
KEY FEATURES:
Local multiplayer. Your family will absolutely love this version of chess. Do you fancy a happy competition between parents and children? It is possible. Invite grandparents too, they certainly know the rules.
Kids-friendly. It’s a game for the whole family, easy to learn and cheerful. Play it regardless of age. Thanks to the vibrant cartoon style, children will also join the fun.
Brain training. But in a fun way! Brawl Chess looks modern while still being one of the oldest and most popular games in the world with all its advantages. It increases IQ, improves arithmetic skills, teaches analytical and critical thinking. Train to use both hemispheres of your brain.
Creativity boost. The fun doesn’t have to end after turning off the console. When the father plays as a ghost, and the son plays as a prince, they can perform scenes with these characters after the chess game ends.
More information about the game can be found on Steam, the developer website, Twitter and Facebook.
