Chess Titans (Beta)

After the 3 move intro and unlocking a piece I sat in the matchmaking for 5 minutes before giving up

This game has a lot of potential and it would do a lot better with an ai to fight. I played for 1 hour and the whole time I was waiting for someone to play with.

Honestly years of playing chess has made me realize the game is stale and frankly, too simple. Chess Titans provides a bold new suite of innovation to breathe life into a centuries-old game. Thank you Abstract Games. Thank you.

Find another way to monetize the game, the idea is cool but with so few players, I’ll never unlock the pieces I want to play with

The positive: new replacement pieces! Adds new strategy. Negatives: Multiplayer only, no single player, or practice modes All games are 2:30 per side, not adjustable. Not really long enough to think about moves, or get used to new pieces Finding a match takes a long time, sometimes can’t get one at all Only five matches a day unless you pay or watch ads Match prizes take a minimum 3 hours to open, unless you pay Only four slots for match prizes, so if you have no open slots, why bother playing? The currency (gems) are expensive, and you only get one or two of them as match prizes There are bugs. I captured my opponent’s king once! I have to admit, that was awesome.

Have you ever played chess before releasing this unfinished game early? We need more time and should be able to premove. How do you forget the very basics?

This has been super fun to get into. I’m a casual chess player and it’s refreshing to see new mechanics thrown it. Excited to play more ♟️

Chess with a twist… I absolutely love it and can’t wait to unlock all the pieces!

It’s a cool concept but the matchmaking takes at least 2 minutes per match

I didn’t realize I was ready for something new. I go back to old Chess now and it’s literally not as much fun as Chess Titans. This game has 1000x more strategy while keeping the elements of chess the same. Definitely added to my roster of “games I play” Before you even begin a game the strategy starts… what piece combinations do I use? What if my opponent uses a battering ram, how will I be able to defend? Then you get into the game and your opponent pulls out an opening you never saw coming. One negative about the game is you start at 0 ELO… everyone does. So you play some people that are just so below your skill level. Then - when you’re working your way up, let’s say at 300 ELO, you play someone who is also working their way up who is a 2,000 ELO player in old chess. Other than the land mines of insanely good players - solid 10 out of 10 game. Definitely worth the download, but fair warning you’ll probably get addicted - especially if you’re an “old chess” fan!
