Chess will never be the same! Knightmare Chess is chess played with cards
- and what cards! Each card breaks the rules
in a wild and unpredictable way, giving the game more twists and turns than a
roller coaster. A translation of the
popular French game ‘Tempete sur l’Echequier’ by Pierre Clequin and Bruno Faidutti, ‘Knightmare Chess’
has 80 big, beautiful cards - each with an individual color
painting by Brazilian
artist Rogerio Vilela.
Some ‘Knightmare Chess’ cards affect a single
move, while some change the entire game!
Each card is assigned a point value, so you can build custom decks based
on an agreed point total, or handicap the match so the better player has fewer powerful
cards. The possibilities are endless -
and so is the fun!
