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.
