Beyond Chess D20

Beyond Chess is a strategy game that takes the core of chess and adds one missing ingredient: uncertainty.

Choose how you want to play:

CLASSIC MODE
Pure chess. Deterministic captures. No randomness.

STATISTICAL MODE
Captures are resolved by probability. Each piece has a fixed chance to capture other pieces, sometimes you win, sometimes you bounce back. No victory is guaranteed.

RPG DICE MODE (D20)
Every capture attempt rolls a d20:
• 1: Critical fail — your piece self-destructs
• 2–5: Capture fails — your piece stays in its original square
• 6–19: Normal capture
• 20: Wololo conversion — the target piece turns to your color while your piece stays in place


ONLINE PvP
Play online matches in public or private rooms, choose a nickname and jump in. (Online play requires an internet connection.)


If you enjoy chess, tabletop RNG, and tactical risk management, Beyond Chess is built for you.
