This is the IOS client to play board games with other people at Boardspace.net. Boardspace hosts over 100 games, mostly 2-player abstract strategy games, but also some multi-player Euro games, and word games. All games are played in real time, turn at a time, or in person in pass-and-play mode. Real time games can be suspended, but it is expected that you will play complete games in one sitting, as you would when playing another person face-to-face.

One knight. A very long night. Knightmare is a turn-based chess survival game. You are a lone knight on a chessboard. Enemy pieces are added over time as you battle them for your survival one move after the other. No king to protect. No checkmate to chase. How long can you survive?
