## What is ChessPolly?

Chess with an economy.

In Chesspoly, both players begin with a lone king and three coins. Every turn is a choice: move, earn, or spend coins to deploy a new piece. Build your army from nothing, control the board, and find checkmate before your opponent does.

PLAY YOUR WAY

• Challenge the computer at three difficulty levels
• Pass & Play with a friend on one device
• Find an online opponent with Quick Match
• Create private rooms and invite friends with a six-character code
• Learn the game through guided onboarding and built-in rules

A NEW STRATEGIC RHYTHM

• Moving a non-king piece earns one coin
• Buying a piece takes your whole turn and also earns one coin
• New pieces enter on their normal starting squares
• Escape check with any legal move or deployment
• Win by checkmate, or draw by stalemate

Chesspoly has no ads and no in-app purchases. Coins are part of the game only and have no cash value.

Online play requires an internet connection.
