Arcane Chess Realm

A free online 1v1 tactics game combining chess-inspired movement with deckbuilding. Command your pieces on an arcane battlefield, create openings with cards, and defeat the enemy commander.

Plan your moves. Create openings with cards.

Five types of pieces each have their own movement rules. Cards bring new possibilities: extra movement, teleportation, protection, revival, and ways to reveal or disrupt your opponent's hand. Protect your commander while preparing your next attack.

Build your 24-card deck

All battle cards are unlocked from the start. Deckbuilding is not restricted by purchases or progression. Build a 24-card deck before battle and save different combinations in five deck slots.

Moving pieces and playing cards share the same energy pool. Reposition, defend, or commit to a card combination—decide how to spend your limited resources each turn.

Adapt to a changing battlefield

Permanent danger zones appear as the match progresses, gradually reducing the safe positions for your commander. Chests in the river offer extra resources and new objectives to contest. Balance your formation against opportunities to seize an advantage.

Practice, challenge, and review

Online PvP has a 30-second limit per turn and a 15-minute limit per match.
