    The game's absolute cinema; the animation and gameplay's amazing, coupled with local/online multiplayer and a great roguelike mode which I've been grinding through to unlock the rest of the magic spells. But holy f*** the AI be playing like Magnus Carlsen as I'm getting rinsed even playing at Apprentice difficulty (the lowest difficulty btw) 😭

    The worst chess game I've ever played in my entire life. I was really hyped to try it, but I have to admit that I was incredibly disappointed. Gameplay & Balance : The game is simply terribly unbalanced. The king can literally run around endlessly, while all of the opponent's pawns can be sacrificed to buff him to the point where he can one-shot absolutely all of my pieces without me being able to deal a single…
