Ragnarok Chess

Another addition to the collection of classic chess games in beautiful theme settings. Nice atmosphere and soundtrack. I wish there were physical versions of the sets too, they are great.

A cool, quick chess game with a neat visual scheme and soundtrack. AI is competent enough to keep it interesting and quick enough to keep the games going.

I find the board position difficult to read because of how the pieces look. Multiplayer is awful, you basically take control with two people of the same session. This feels really clunky, and I never want to play like that again. If you want to play against friends I recommend any chess website (lichess.org or chess.com for example) I felt that the intermediate AI was easier than the novice AI. It always plays the same move, horse to F6. This is easily countered. Play white, E4 Nf6 With black, the AI always seems to open with this. Push the pawn to attack it E5 Ne4 The AI will avoid the attack by moving forward Qe2 Nc6 You put your queen before your king, and what does the AI do? It develops the other knight and doesn't protect the knight on e4. Qxe4 You capture the knight on e4. I've also had the game get stuck when a checkmate happened. That is annoying to say the least.

The AI is kind of dumb even on the advanced difficulty. Some of the rules were either ignored or forgotten, I played 10 games and in at least 3 of them, the opposing king was able to castle despite of the queen or bishops cutting off its path. The viking aesthetic is really cool, though. More unlockable skins would be appreciated, but for 1.99 it's good enough. Like I said earlier my only gripe is that this game doesn't follow all chess rules to a T.

Standard chess game. Boards are in the areas from Chess Knights: Viking Lands. To unlock better sets and play areas you have to complete a certain number of games. Decent enough.
