Game Overview

In the world of Pawn of the Dead, an ancient curse has transformed chess into a battle for survival. As Leonard, the White King, you must defend your kingdom against an army of undead Black pieces that have been awakened by dark magic. Your trusted ally Elona, the White Queen, is a fierce warrior who will aid you in your quest to defeat the darkness and restore balance to the board.

Gameplay revolves around outmaneuvering your opponents using clever tactics and strategic positioning. Each piece has its unique abilities and weaknesses, making for an engaging battle of wits. As you progress through the campaign mode's 64 levels, you'll encounter a variety of challenges and cinematics that advance the story.

But here's what sets Pawn of the Dead apart: when Black pieces capture White pieces, they turn into Black pieces themselves! This mechanic adds a fresh layer of depth to the classic chess gameplay. With its random level generator, you can expect unpredictable challenges and surprises around every corner. Whether you're playing as White or Black, each match is an opportunity to test your mettle against the undead hordes.

What makes Pawn of the Dead truly unique is its ability to combine the strategic depth of chess with the thrill of a battle for survival. Will you answer the call and become the hero that saves the White Kingdom from certain doom?
