ABOUT BRAWL CHESS – GAMBIT
Choose your hero, challenge other players, and lead your chess army to victory. Enjoy this queen of all games that’s suitable for all ages and levels of advancement. If you’re a strategy expert in love with the classics and the traditional look of the pieces, then the fifth level of difficulty will be for you. However, if you’d like to introduce your kids to the game, switch to the cartoon mode created by Platige Image.
You can then let them choose between a mysterious fairy, a dangerous dwarf, a clever elf, a brave prince, and many other heroes that will turn a regular chess game into an epic adventure. Arrows will fly above your heads, swords will break in the heat of the battle, and your child will learn the game rules without even noticing it.
BRAWL CHESS – GAMBIT – MAIN FEATURES
Single player and local multiplayer game modes. Practice your chess strategy alone or invite your family members and friends to the competition. Bond with your children or let them spend some time with their grandparents over a chessboard. Re-discover this classic game in an entirely new way.
Kid-friendly experience for players of all ages. The great advantage of chess is that the game is the definition of “easy to learn, hard to master.” Its basic rules are trivial to grasp, but it takes a lot of practice and skill to become a true chess grandmaster. And thanks to this version’s vibrant cartoon style, it’ll keep children’s interest while at the same time providing a ton of fun.
Brain training without even noticing it! A modern look doesn’t change the fact that chess is one of the oldest and, to this day, most popular games in the world due to all its advantages. It increases IQ, improves arithmetic skills, and teaches analytical and critical thinking. Playing regularly to train both hemispheres of your brain!
A creativity boost on top of a regular chess game. Here the fun doesn’t have to stop after turning the console off. For instance, when one gamer plays as a ghost and the other plays as a prince, they can later perform scenes with these characters after the chess game ends. And that’s just one example of many possibilities, so use your imagination and have fun!
Brawl Chess – Gambit is now available on the Microsoft Store on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One and on Nintendo Switch for $9.99.
More information about the game can be found on the RedDeerGames website, Facebook, and Twitter.
