This is a game made for the NES, but I've made it so it runs in browser through NinjaPad. NinjaPad binds the A and B keys of the NES to X and Z, and the D-Pad to the arrow keys. When you start the game, you have to click the screen for the game to register your inputs.

Shawn the Pawn is the Queen's only hope for defeating the rival king! Help Shawn the Pawn fight opponents through 7 rooms, using turn based strategy and controlling himself, the Rook, and the Bishop. Unravel the tense and gripping story you never expected from Chess!

In this game, you have to think multiple steps ahead. On the board in each level, the pieces move according to the same rules they do in actual chess. Pawns move straight ahead one square at a time, rooks move straight along an unobstructed path, and bishops move diagonally. The difference from actual chess lies in the fact that you control only a few pieces at a time in turn based combat, and the opposing team follows this too. Each level is hand designed to form a challenging strategic puzzle.
