About the game
Place chess pieces on the board to hold back the undead before they reach your king. This is a tower-defense game.
Chess pieces turned into towers against zombies. Runs built from a series of waves. Piece choice and board placement, the deciding factors for the king's survival. Knowledge of how each chess unit works, carried into defense planning.
According to indierdcr, the idea is to take a familiar board game and turn it into something different. They had been considering this project for a while before starting it.
