Pixel Chess RPG: Pocket Edition transforms the game of kings into an addictive, idle-progression tactical battler. Whether you are a casual player looking for an idle strategy game or a chess enthusiast wanting a fresh twist, build your army, level up your board, and command your pieces to victory!

NOTE: Multiplayer (real-time PvP matchmaking) is exclusive to the Steam version of Pixel Chess RPG. The Pocket Edition is an offline-focused campaign experience featuring Practice vs AI, Self-Play Analysis, and full campaign/roguelite progression!

⚔️ UNIQUE CHESS RPG GAMEPLAY
Your pieces aren't just coordinates on a board—they have Health Points (HP), Damage (DMG), and earn Gold per move! Strategize attacks based on elemental weaknesses: Pawns stomp Kings, Knights outrun Queens, and Bishops snipe Rooks. Level up your board, wipe out the enemy, and hunt down their King!

POWERFUL SPECIAL UPGRADES & ABILITIES
Spend your hard-earned Gold in the Upgrade Shop to unlock game-changing specials and abilities:
• King’s Aura: Boost friendly unit damage and defense in a 1-tile radius.
• Midas Touch: Earn 3x Gold on King kills.
• Rook’s Blast: Deal devastating splash damage to adjacent squares.
• Bishop’s Snipe: Deal bonus damage based on tile distance.
• Vampirism & Regen: Heal back HP based on damage dealt or regenerate every turn.

Income speed, Auto-Play timers, and Gold multipliers can all be leveled up to customize your idle build!

THE REBIRTH SYSTEM
Hit a wall? Rebirth to reset your board and earn powerful Rebirth Tokens. Spend them in the Token Shop to unlock permanent multipliers:
• Starter Gold: Start your next run with a massive fortune.
• Damage & Gold Multipliers: Permanently scale your board's stats.
• Token Multipliers: Exponentially increase your token earnings per rebirth.

GAME MODES
