## Description

Chess meets tactical bombs. Arm your pieces, time your fuse, and don't get caught in your own blast.

Explosive Chess is a turn-based strategy game that combines chess movement with tactical, timed bomb explosions. Move your pieces like chess — but the only way to destroy anything is with bombs.

Every turn you choose: move a piece, or arm a bomb. Bombs detonate on a fuse, blast in patterns determined by the piece that armed them, and friendly fire is real. Your own King can be destroyed by your own bomb.

HOW TO PLAY
Select a piece and move it — or switch to Arm mode and place a bomb on any square it threatens. Every piece has a unique blast shape. Rooks blast in a cross. Knights blast in an L-pattern that ignores everything in between. Pawns blast diagonally forward. The only way to win is to destroy the enemy King.

FEATURES
· Single-player vs AI with three difficulty levels — Easy, Medium, and Hard
· Pass & Play multiplayer on one device
· Three power-ups hidden in destructible rubble: Extra Bomb, Fuse Control, and Shield
· Randomized board layouts every game — no two games play the same
· No ads. No subscriptions. No in-app purchases. Buy it once, own it forever.
