Chess Nuke
Chess Nuke is a high-synergy tactical roguelike played on a chess board, where the goal is total destruction instead of checkmate. Players build an engine of war, outmanoeuvre the enemy and eventually annihilate the entire board. It drops opening theory and memorization in favor of fast, high-stakes decisions.
Each turn starts with a roll for Action Points, so the dice set the stage and the player executes. Pieces are never lost. They evolve, and players merge units to unlock powerful abilities and craft the high-tier components for their ultimate weapon.
