Prince Chazz
Move like a queen, capture chess-piece enemies and survive as long as you can on the day's board.
Every day: One daily board, the same for every player, with a daily leaderboard and a streak. You play a run as the prince on that board, capturing chess-piece enemies for points until they catch you. A countdown shows when the next daily goes live. New puzzle: Once a day.
Prince Chazz is a pixel-art chess survival game. You move like a queen across a forest board scattered with rocks, landing on enemy rooks, knights and bishops to capture them. Every capture summons two more, and after each of your moves they all close in. There is one shared daily board with a leaderboard.
About Prince Chazz
Prince Chazz is a small browser game made by Maanraket (Floris Veldhuizen and Tom Hutman). You play a crowned prince on a grid in a pixel-art forest, with rocks blocking some squares and enemy chess pieces dotted around.
The prince moves like a chess queen: any distance in a straight line, including diagonals. Landing on an enemy captures it and scores a point. The catch is that each capture brings in two new enemies, and after your turn every enemy moves toward you the way its piece moves: rooks in lines, knights in L-shapes, bishops on their own square colour. One careless step ends the run.
Each day there is one daily board, the same for everyone, with its own leaderboard, and the game keeps your streak, your longest streak and the days you placed. You can tap the prince to see the order the enemies will strike in, and a setting shows active threats for players new to chess moves.
It suits people who know how chess pieces move and like short runs where every move is a calculated risk.
How to play Prince Chazz
- Open the day's board and find the prince.
- Move like a queen: any distance in a straight line or diagonal.
- Land on an enemy piece to capture it and score a point.
- Watch the enemies move after your turn, each like its chess piece.
- Keep capturing without ending on a square an enemy can reach.
Tips
- Tap the prince to see the order enemies will move before committing.
- Remember each capture adds two enemies, so plan an escape before you strike.
- Bishops stay on one square colour, which makes some squares safe from them.
