Echo Chess
by Echo Chunk
Clear the chess board one piece at a time.
Screenshot Objective
Move the White chess pieces on the daily board to capture all Black pieces.
Playlin'sGuide
Echo Chess is a daily logic puzzle inspired by chess movement but with a unique twist: every capture transforms you into the piece you just ate. Black pieces never move, and your job is to clear the board using clever sequencing and strategy.
How it works:
- You control all White pieces; Black pieces remain static.
- Drag a piece to any valid square to move or capture.
- When you capture a piece, your piece changes type to match the one you took.
- Dark red squares are walls: only knights can jump over them.
- You can switch between any of your White pieces at any time.
- Capture every Black piece to win the puzzle.
Each day brings a new handcrafted board with different walls, layouts, and capture orders.
Why we like it:
- β Brilliant fusion of chess logic and puzzle design.
- β The βtransform on captureβ mechanic creates deep strategic planning.
- β Quick rounds, but wonderfully thinky.
Hint: Look ahead two or three captures: the piece you become often matters more than the piece you are.
