Not a huge fan of how it practically holds your hand for the chess portion of the game, telling you everywhere you can go and every person you can attack if you click on a piece. It really feels like the chess part is a very minor part to the game and the fighting is what's really focused on. This is especially true because as long as you're good at fighting games, you don't have to be good at chess at all and you can still win easily. The chess seems like an after thought and that was pretty disappointing

Also, I can't put my finger on why, but the fighting in the game seems a bit wonky. There's something about it that's just off (I also don't like that A (Xbox)/X (PlayStation) is used to jump instead of another attack button

All that being said, I still really do like this game. I love both chess and fighting games, so this was a cool combination

6.5/10
