'Unlock The King' is an originally designed puzzle game inspired by chess. It features a unique concept with an electronic board, lightning fast piece movements, trigger buttons, movable parts, and an original soundtrack designed to help you focus and relax while solving 100 levels and earning 10 Steam achievements. Although the game has 100 levels, it took me only about 50 minutes to complete and unlock all achievements. Thanks to its straightforward gameplay, single ending, automatic save system, and lack of time limits, the game offers an accessible and enjoyable puzzle experience. I would rate the difficulty around 3 out of 10 for players familiar with chess piece movements, or closer to 8 out of 10 for those who are not. 'Unlock The King' is a refreshing and cleverly designed puzzle game that brings a new dimension to the chessboard. Even if you have never played chess, this game is highly approachable and rewarding. The mechanics are easy to understand but offer enough complexity to keep even experienced puzzle players engaged. With 100 carefully designed levels, the game gradually increases in difficulty, encouraging strategic thinking and planning. The innovative elements such as the electronic board, fast moving pieces, and interactive triggers give the game a modern and dynamic feel. The original soundtrack is also a highlight, creating a calm and focused environment that enhances the overall experience. I purchased this game during a sale for 0.54€, but I think the regular price of 0.99€ is fair considering the content offered. If you are interested, it may still be worth waiting for a discount if you want to save a bit of money. In conclusion, whether you are a chess enthusiast or someone who simply enjoys a good puzzle, 'Unlock The King' is a great choice. It is highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun and satisfying puzzle challenge.

Es divertido y fácil, te pasas una tarde entretenida y más con ese precio tan bajo
Nice brain game :) I thought the levels will get much harder as they increase, but it was suitable & perfect. I recommend.
bueno
добротная играйка, рекомендую к приобретению и дальнейшему прохождению. круто
Fun little game, especially if you just want to solve some quick puzzles without being overstimulated. Despite what some people say, I think the fact that there are some easy levels mixed in with the harder ones makes the game more enjoyable, because it allows you to turn off your brain a bit and just relax, which is exactly what the game should allow you to do.
fun but short puzzle game using chess mechanics. easy to learn and some puzzles can be challenging but everything is solvable. avoid the urge to look up the solutions. best to just leave the game and come back to it if you get stuck. NOTE: Level 59 might be bugged but the puzzle is still solvable. After a knight piece is moved, you can no longer activate any of the other pieces so you will have to restart the puzzle.
It's a great 2D ♥♥♥ 3D Puzzle Game. I had fun moving the chess pieces arpund for the King to find it's way to the Goal. I finished the Game in less than 90 minutes. (Don't validate with my time as I started this game twice many months back but lost progress 2-3 times around levels 30-40 each time; this time I completed it in a single sitting.) Had Fun with this mid level difficulty puzzle game.
Спокойная игра на 2 часа. Нормально. Уровни достаточно простые, а если сложно представить последовательность, то легко проходится методом перебора. Ничего сложного. Уровень сложности: примерно для детей дошкольного возраста.
I love this game. It's a new way to play chess.
