MergeMate: Chess Merge

A PAWN PAIR CAN CHANGE THE WHOLE BOARD MergeMate combines chess movement with piece merging on a compact 6-by-6 board. Merge two matching pieces to create a stronger one, capture enemies to rebuild your reserves, and choose when to deploy them back into the fight. The main merge chain is simple: pawns become knights, knights become rooks, and rooks become queens. Moving, merging and deploying each use a turn. A stronger piece is useful only if you create it at the right moment. 100 LEVELS, 10 CHAPTERS Start with three short lessons, then explore fixed tactical positions, mate-in-two puzzles and chapter bosses. Every level has a clear objective. Campaign battles end with a real checkmate. THREE STARS WITH A PURPOSE Win the level, win with its original army, and complete its tactical challenge. One level may ask you to capture with a merged piece; another asks you to put a deployed reserve to work. Stars can be collected across different wins. Free hints and undos do not cost stars, and stars are not tied to a move limit. A DAILY POSITION TO SOLVE Unlock Daily Puzzle after your first campaign checkmate. Find the key merge, checkmate within two moves and build a daily streak. CHALLENGE A FRIEND Create a room and share its four-character code for an online match.
