About

SumoChess

SumoChess is a free app offering a Chess variant created by avid Chess players, looking for a twist in the rules that would add fun and novelty to the traditional Chess game. In SumoChess you can only take pieces by pushing them off the board. Only the king can still take. That makes it more complex and intense than chess, as most of your pieces stay active, and you can have fun playing tricky moves by a well-placed push.

Clear the board, one capture at a time. Every piece has to go, and the only legal move is a capture. Take a knight and you become the knight. Take a bishop and you move like a bishop. Pick the wrong order and your piece is stranded with nothing left to take โ€” so you read the position again and find the line that works. Real chess rules, one new idea. A knight still moves like a knight; a bishop still cuts the diagonal. What changes is the goal: no opponent, no clock, and nothing to lose. Just a position, and whether you can see the way through it. WHAT YOU GET โ€ข Over 6,000 hand-checked boards across 250 packs โ€ข 10 piece types โ€” the six from chess, plus four that only exist here! โ€ข 5 board sets to unlock as you clear the campaign โ€ข Difficulty that climbs as you go, and eases when you need it โ€ข Five skills for when a position will not fall: hint, undo, shield, morph, hammer HOW IT PLAYS Boards start at 3x3 and open up as you go. Every pack is a handful of positions with one honest solution each โ€” solvable on the bus, and worth a second look at home. Almost every pack is untimed: take the minute you need. A few carry a clock as a challenge, and you will see it before you start. PLAY HOW YOU LIKE No account needed โ€” the whole game works without signing in. Sign in with Apple only if you want your progress to follow you to a new phone. Plays offline. No ads, anywhere, ever. ABOUT LIVES AND COINS A run costs a life, and lives refill on their own over time. Coins buy skills and refills, and are earned by playing โ€” or bought in the shop if you would rather not wait. Everything purchasable can also be earned by playing.
