Capture. Throw. Topple the board. Chessplosion is real 3D chess with a second way to play. In Classic mode, play by the rules: castling, en passant, promotion and draws. Face the AI at three levels, share a device, or challenge a friend online by turn. In Artillery mode, every capture can become a shot. Aim and throw the captured piece back onto the board in the same turn. Whatever it topples is captured too — even your own pieces. Topple the king and the game ends. Easy shows the full flight path. Normal makes you time the power. Hard adds wind and scatter. Turn on debris and thrown pieces stay where they land, blocking squares. Play offline against AI or locally without an account. Balane Play is optional for turn-based games with friends and leaderboards. Invite a friend by code or link; each of you plays when ready. Save a match, replay finished games and see what each throw hit. No ads. No tracking.
