You have to guess the right move, but you're running out of time. Use the orange pill to get sharp and focus on the right piece. Or use the turquoise pill to chill and slow the time. But beware, the abuse of substances can cause side effects.

The United States storefront in every case, so this compares stores and not countries.
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): 0/day in the week to Aug 28 → 0.14/day in the week after.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.25/day in the week to Jul 16 → 0.14/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 2,400 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.

Great evolution of Bot.Vinnik games! It's true that I've always dealt with drugs better than authoritarian teachers haha. But I think you guys nailed the tense atmosphere. As a feedback, I think it should be clearer the difference between: the match is continuing after a correct move, a new match is starting but the previous move was correct, a new match is starting and the previous move was wrong. These 3 situations occur very quickly with no time for the player to absorb which of the 3 situations occurred. For the first situation, I think it would be nice to have an indicator somewhere saying that that move is part of a sequence (for example, 1/3 in the corner of the screen would already prepare the player that if he make a correct move, the board will be kept for the next 3 rounds). But great game! Recommended!!
i like the concept but instead of gradually getting harder the difficulty of the puzzles is totally rng making the leaderboards useless and the gameplay boring

This is a really great game if you are a fan of chess puzzles. The music is great, and the pills are a fun twist on standard timed puzzles. The only things I wish they would change are: 1. Remove the ability to make illegal moves, sometimes I accidentally click and move pieces randomly across the board 2. Allow us to drag pieces to move, rather than just click 3. Allow us the chance to change pieces and board colour (I find the current pieces occasionally hard to differentiate, especially kings and queens at a quick glance but this one is less important) All in all, a really fantastic game especially at this price!
Excellent puzzle app - and it works perfectly on steam deck too. If you like puzzle rush or puzzle storm on chess.com and lichess then you will enjoy chess pills.
A timed chess puzzle game about solving simple puzzles. It's not particularly challenging, but you can't really make many mistakes. It is entertaining enough to practice some simple tactics/puzzles.
Confesso que fiquei um pouco confuso com o objetivo dos puzzles. Dar xeque? Progredir até o xeque-mate? Em alguns momentos eu achava que sim, em outros fiquei na dúvida :P Sou um jogador bem vagabundo de xadrez, mas conseguir me divertir um pouco.
A nice Chess game with some tweaks and innovations. Keep an eye on the pieces, the clock and take your pills fast !
Actually a good game. However, after just an hour of playing, I found twice or more some puzzles I already solved, so there are maybe not enough puzzles. A quick analysis of the missed puzzle could be a good feature to the game. I recommend it as it is a good game for it price.
Very cool concept, wish it would tell you how many moves to mate.
I totally recommend this game. Very fun way to learn how to improve your speed playing chess. Great for improving for bullet games.
