## What is Chess Defence?

Defend the board. Command chess heroes. Survive the zombie horde.

Chess Defence blends classic chess piece movement with wave-based tower defense. Place your King, Queen, Rooks, and more on an 8×8 board — then reposition them with real chess moves while zombies march from the far rank. Every piece attacks along its chess lines. Every wave demands a new tactic.

HOW IT PLAYS
• Deploy chess heroes and fight escalating zombie waves
• Move pieces using legal chess rules between attacks
• Charge piece-specific skills by defeating enemies
• Unlock Valor Shot, Cannon Barrage, Phantom Guard, Royal Rally, and more
• Win with smart positioning — not just bigger numbers

 GAME MODES
• Campaign — hundreds of levels across a growing world map
• Queen's Gambit — lead a lone Queen through a narrow assault
• King's Nightmare — hold the King against threats from every side
• Earn 1–3 stars per level and climb Star Rank for bonus chests

LONG-TERM PROGRESSION
• Upgrade 6 heroes (Pawn to King) with cards and gold
• Level up unique skills for each chess piece
• Open victory chests packed with cards, gold, and rewards
• Complete daily and weekly quests plus 200+ milestones
• Push forward — new levels always beat farming old ones

 WHY CHESS DEFENCE?
• Tactical depth without needing master-level chess skill
• Short sessions: clear a level in minutes, upgrade in seconds
• Skill, placement, and timing always matter

Download Chess Defence and turn the chessboard into your last line of defense.
