WizardChess
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
WizardChess is Deckbuilding Chess from a preposterous fantasy realm, invented by mysterious wizards. Multiple game modes challenge players to think on their feet and balance tactics with speed: hit the Arcade for quick, replayable runs or explore the world in Story mode. Whether you're an amateur or an expert WizardChess has something for Grandma's and Grand Masters alike.
Manoeuvre specialized units (of 50+ unique classes) in emergent, often unhinged, turn-based combat and use unique skills to defeat enemy units. Much like chess, small errors can (and often will) lead to harsh consequences. Unlike chess, your pieces are enchanted and have ATK, DEF and SKL stats... and your opponent(s) are the Fae.
Recruit, upgrade, sacrifice, trade and gamble your units away to create the most powerful build you can. Learn the systems, unlock the full pool of units and take calculated risks and maybe you’ll defeat the Fae Queen herself.
WizardChess is entirely procedurally generated. Every run, every room, every tile, every item, and every unit is determined by a combination of luck and a dynamic response to your playstyle. Each biome features unique rooms, enemies and a boss with its own opponent "style" and scaling difficulty.
TwoPM consists of Ben Follington and Ricky James, both based in Queensland, Australia. We've been best friends for about 15 years and have been making games for almost as long.

Hihihihi I was wondering if it's possible to play online mp?
Oh! I've been watching development on this on Twitter. Looking forward to seeing where it goes!
Thanks so much for taking an interest. We haven't formally announced the preview yet (it's happening today!) so you're getting in early!
