## What is Forethought?

In this chess-inspired puzzle game, every move counts. Your goal is simple: reach the top of the board before your turns run out.

But there’s a twist—landing on different tiles changes how you move. One step you’re a rook, the next a knight. To succeed, you’ll need to plan several moves ahead, adapt to new movement rules, and think strategically like a true chess master.

Features:
Unique chess-inspired mechanics that turn each level into a logic puzzle
Abstract strategy gameplay where planning ahead is the key to victory
Tiles that transform your movement, keeping every game fresh and challenging
Perfect mix of puzzle and board game design, easy to learn but tough to master
Relax with untimed puzzles or push yourself in more challenging game modes

Plan ahead, adapt to changing tiles, and master puzzles that test your foresight. Perfect for fans of chess, board games, and challenging strategy puzzles.

How many moves can you think ahead? Download Forethought today and put your strategy skills to the test!
