Its chess with the added gimmick of also removing any piece in the row or column that the king piece is not in every time a piece is captured. This adds an entitely new layer of strategy to the game and adds up to a very interesting puzzle and strategy game. Casual chess fans should give this a watch.

Would love the ability to play multiplayer with people I know (friends list). Also would be cool to have a regular chess mode too. Pretty cool otherwise.

Exactly what it says. It's not a bad game, though a little weird to wrap your head around. The interface for loading levels is a bit annoying, but still usable. The game itself is fine.

For five stars please fix the crashing on loading the next level. Also stop asking for reviews once I have reviewed. It happens every time I win a level, not only on update.

Quite fun. the AI is a bit weak though and some rules are not implemented (eg stalemate on repeated identical positions)

5 ★, on 2020-07-14
Fun to play. This is a novel & original game idea, beautifully executed. Highly recommend to all chess enthusiasts!

About this app

Chessplode is modern chess for everyone, it makes chess fun even if you're bad ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, one simply move... can change all game.

-- THE MODERN RULE --
Chessplode is pretty much like chess with a really BIG twist...
- CAPTURE a piece and everything in the same LINE and COLUMN will EXPLODE...
- But if a KING is in that LINE or COLUMN it will be a really *boring* chess capture (no explosions)

-- THINK DIFF... *DISTINCT* --
This rule is pretty tricky, in regular chess you need to defend your KING, but in Chessplode it can save your pieces.
Remember, you can't capture some pieces because you could get check.
Sometimes you will checkmate capturing a piece that explodes.
And other you will be afraid of having several pieces in the same line or column...(POP!)

-- FRIENDS (Who love chess) REVIEW --
They find Chessplode a great challenge and love how they need to change the old way of thinking even if they are winning... a bad move and they will run out of pieces.

-- FRIENDS (Who *meh* chess) REVIEW --
Chess + Explosions... you got my attention. Some of these friends were casual chess players and others didn't really feel the attraction for chess. Both find Chessplode a really fun game. When they were playing regular chess they were not good, now they are the kings of the hill.

-- FEATURES --
* FREE TO PLAY
* Realtime chess battles multiplayer with people around the world.
* In multiplayer you can send an emoji (to express your feelings) with every move you submit. Instant fun!
* Play Levels created for other players, you can find really madness here, but you can undo your move... everyone can make a mistake.
* Create your own custom Level and submit it to everyone can play it. Challenge the world!
* Try local multiplayer battles with friends in the same device. Head to head!
* Practice playing versus Ziri.
* A lot of different color themes, play day and night with your favourite colors.

Thank you for playing "Chessplode"! I really hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it ;)
