What do you mean I can't "croissant" my pawns? Pill Bilbis, the legendary chess grandmaster, would never approve of learning chess only to be subjected to early queen checkmate tactics and unskippable YouTuber clips. We all know it's a horse, but who needs your conventional strategies when there's the magnificent and mythical wheel piece?

In Chess Ultra, prepare for a chess experience like no other. From the moment you enter the game, it's evident that you'll face an array of challenging opponents, each with their unique playing style. Don't expect to just 'croissant' your way to victory; you'll need wit and cunning.

The game's visuals are stunning, offering a refined, almost luxurious experience. It's like playing chess in an art gallery, with beautifully rendered pieces and boards that add a touch of class to the game. You can almost feel Pill Bilbis nodding in approval.

Now, let's talk about the horsey – I mean, the knight piece. If you're new to chess, it might be tempting to nickname it a horsey. However, the game makes it clear that it's not to be taken lightly. In fact, after a few games, you might hear the echoing laughter of Hikaru Nakamura in your head every time you make a suboptimal move with the knight. This game has a way of teaching respect for each piece, even the horsey.

In Chess Ultra, you'll discover that there's a depth to chess that goes beyond early queen checkmates. It encourages you to hone your skills, develop strategies, and appreciate the timeless game. And it's not just about winning; it's about the journey, the challenge, and the satisfaction of a well-played game.

For both newcomers and seasoned chess players, Chess Ultra offers a high-quality chess experience. Although Pill Bilbis may not endorse the game himself, I give Chess Ultra a well-deserved 8 out of 10. After all, it's not about how you croissant your pawns, but how you seize the victory!
