Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2/day in the week to Aug 23 → 4.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

No es mal juego, pero no era lo que esperaba, me gusto el concepto aunque es muy directa la copia a Balatro, aún se siente en etapa de desarrollo, hay pocos gambitos, la mayoria no son muy utiles y generalmente hay algunas cosas aplicadas como la probabilidad de que se active algun gambito o elegir entre 3 piezas que no tiene mucho sentido agregarlo ya que las piezas de ajedrez no varian mucho y siempre es lo mismo.
pretty cool pretty fun game

Simplesmente perfeito, xadrez 2 oficial, depois de se frustrar no chess.com é uma ótima maneira de relaxar e continuar jogando xadrez. Vc vai passar horas e nem vai perceber!!! (10/10).
melhor jogo existente, muito viciante
Прекрасная игра, оформление хорошое, не режет глаза, геймплэй тоже очень приятный. Музыка вабще шедевр, но хотелось бы побольше разной музыки. Единственное что очень походе на balataro и поинтерфейсу и по гамбитам (аналог в balatro джокеры). А так игра имба, уже купил на телефон.
про додеп лучше
Great spacial puzzle game. Takes chess to another level and incorporates all the fun parts of rogue like games. Each run is a challenge and compels me to want to play another.
Great chess rouge like that has ALOT of build variety, and is still getting pretty consistent updates! Only downside is the boss's tooth does not work (for me at least) so maybe avoid that gambit but other than that I love this game! Especially on mobile
