Great strategic match game

I applaud the developer for such a clever mashup of match games and chess. It’s not frustratingly hard, but it’s not mindless either, you do have to think. But it’s relaxing too.

I immediately paid the small fee to remove banner ads. I’m happy to support developers who monetize fairly.

Finally, a match game that’s not childish! So glad I randomly found this when searching for a new game to play. This one will be staying on my phone. Thank you developer!

Response from developer

Thank you for your kind feedback. It's always great when people discover our little game and actually understand the depth of the mechanic.

Very good game with too few options

This is a very good game that offers satisfying puzzle solving by loving chess pieces to line up 4 or more pieces in a row.

The problem is it seems the developers don’t really want to spend time on this game. There are no options to change the look of the board or colors of pieces. And the most important thing for me is that there is no way to turn off hints. When you have 3 pieces lined up and when there is a way to make a line with a 4th pieces the hint comes up. I want to construct a longer line and this annoying hint is distracting.

Maybe the devs are not interested in improving the game because the game isn’t bringing them any profit. I guess I understand.

Thank you for the feedback! Hints are there for new players, and they will be hidden automatically after you connect a few lines.

Response from developer

You can think about our game as a single player chess. It's not that dumb, but definitely simpler then real chess.

Hipster Chess is a single-player puzzle game that combines match-3 mechanics with the movement rules of chess pieces. Players line up four or more chess pieces based on their unique movement patterns to clear them from the board and achieve high scores.

How do you play Hipster Chess?

You play by touching and moving chess pieces on the board so that four or more of the same type, or pieces that can move to the same square, line up. Once lined up, they are cleared from the board. The challenge comes from the fact that pieces move according to their real chess rules.

Is Hipster Chess a real chess game?

What are the monetization options?

The app is free to download and play, but it does offer in-app purchases. These purchases likely provide benefits such as cosmetic items, power-ups, or ways to enhance the gameplay experience, though specific details are not provided in the description.
