[h1][b]Nice puzzle game inspired by chess[/b][/h1] [h3][b]What this game is:[/b][/h3]This game has its origins in the well known chess game, and provides you with puzzles based on sets of problems you need to solve by placing various pieces on a truncated chessboard. [h3][b]How does it work?[/b][/h3] You have 84 puzzles to solve. You must solve each problem one by one, allowing you to progress in the game until the end. The game basically provides you with one main rule: place each piece on the given chessboard in a way that the pieces are allowed to support each other only once. [h3][b]How does it perform?[/b][/h3] Very easy to play, the game tells you if you made mistakes by showing the places where pieces have either more than only one supporting piece, or none at all. Once you've succeded in solving the given problem, you are brought to the next puzle. There are no timers, no time limits, so it is quite relaxing. [h3][b]The good points:[/b][/h3] Simple, efficient and very easy game. There are no apparent bugs that I could see. The music is ok, graphics are simple. This is a totally stress free game, each puzzle can be solved at your own pace. Getting all the achievements is easy, you merely need to solve successfully all puzzles. It takes less than 100 MB on your HD, and will run on a 10 years old PC with integrated graphics. It is free. You can expect 6 to 7 hours of play out of this game when playing casually. [h3][b]The bad points:[/b][/h3] The game is a bit easy. You will progress quickly from one problem to the other, some setups are too easy. Be aware that some puzzles may also have more than one solution. Fortunately, there are some setups that are more challenging. [h3][b]My take on this:[/b][/h3]This is a good puzzle game. There is no stress involved, it is very simple and quite relaxing. Recommended for kids, people looking for a stress free game/time killer, and people that love easy achievements. The game is FREE, which means that basically there is no riks involved in trying it out. Recommended.

Yerleştirme satranca dayalı minimalist bir mantık bulmaca oyunudur. Oyunun amacı satranç taşlarını tahtaya her taş tam olarak bir kez korunacak şekilde yerleştirmektir.
Je suis mitigé car autant ça apporte pas mal de réflexion et donc agréable. Autant ça ne respecte que partiellement les spécificités des échecs et je me retrouve perdu. Il n'y a qu'une seule couleur, des rois peuvent être à côté les uns des autres et je n'ai pas compris si les pions mangent les pièces du haut ou du bas.
good 25min to 100%
for free very good. can recommend it.

NOTA: 6 de 10 Puzles de ajedrez donde cada pieza ha de estar protegida por otra pieza, únicamente. No puede haber ninguna indefensa, ni deben estar protegidas por más de una pieza. Normalmente el espacio del tablero es reducido y suelen poner casillas bloqueadas que no se permite utilizar. Gráficos, audio y música minimalistas, pero de aceptable calidad. Opciones de configuración casi inexistentes, se debe hacer todo con el ratón. No hay manera de jugar solo con el teclado o mando, salvo que se utilice alguna aplicación externa como [u][url=https://github.com/AntiMicroX/antimicrox]Antimicrox[/url][/u]. La música solo permite activarla o desactivarla, no hay medidor de volumen. Parece un videojuego hecho para móviles, sin adaptarse al formato de ordenadores. Duración variable, en total hay 84 puzles, depende de lo que a cada uno le cueste. Idioma NO traducido al español, aunque por suerte hay poco que leer. Tutoriales internos sí ofrece, aunque no se explica del todo bien. Dificultad variable, al principio puede ser complejo incluso para los que saben jugar ajedrez. Aunque al haber pocas combinaciones también es posible resolver los acertijos simplemente probando al azar. Encima se cambia automáticamente al siguiente puzle sin apenas tiempo a ver el resultado de la solución. Interfaz que al posicionar todas las piezas, se marca en rojo de manera obligatoria aquellas que están protegidas por más de una, o las que están indefensas. Guardar-cargar partida se realiza de forma automática. Conclusión: no se pierde nada por probar ya que es gratis, pero a mí me aburrió bastante, prefiero jugar al ajedrez directamente.
