Rise of the Pawn
♟️ About the Game
Rise of the Pawn is a turn-based strategy game inspired by chess, where every piece starts as a humble pawn.
Your units earn experience each turn and by defeating enemies. Evolve your pawns into Rooks, Bishops, Knights... or even a King to shift the tide of battle. Your Queen plays a vital support role, summoning new pawns or empowering nearby allies.
👑 Three Ways to Win
-
Checkmate: Capture the enemy King (if it has been created).
-
Annihilation: Eliminate all opposing pieces from the board.
-
Long Live the King: Create your King and survive 10 turns while your opponent fails to do the same.
⚔️ Key Features
-
🔄 Unique evolution system: Pieces level up and unlock new powers.
-
🧠 Multiple AI personalities: Aggressive, defensive, or balanced – adapt your tactics accordingly.
🧩 Easy to Learn, Tactical in Depth
Accessible for newcomers, Rise of the Pawn offers true strategic depth. Every match is different: your evolution choices, positioning, and reactions will determine your path to victory.
🚀 Will your pawn rise to become king ?
