Chess Flicks

About the Game

Chess Flicks reinvents chess with physics-based gameplay. Instead of moving pieces traditionally, you flick them using a cue stick mechanic — drag back to aim, release to fire.

GAMEPLAY

• Click a piece to select it

• Drag your mouse backward to aim — the further you drag, the more power

• Release to flick the piece in the aim direction

• Knock opponent pieces off the board to eliminate them

• Last player with pieces on the board wins

PIECE PHYSICS

Every piece has a unique weight and shape. Pawns are light and fly far. Rooks are heavy and hit hard. The King is the heaviest piece — protect it.

• Pawn — 0.3 (light, easy to send flying)

• Bishop — 2.0

• Knight — 2.5

• Rook — 3.0

• Queen — 5.0

• King — 6.0 (heaviest)

HIT ZONES

Where you click on a piece matters:

• Hit the TOP — piece tips and spins

• Hit the MIDDLE — balanced push

• Hit the BOTTOM — piece slides along the board

FEATURES

• Solo mode — practice against yourself, alternating sides

• LAN Multiplayer — host or join a game on your local network

• 5-second turn timer — no stalling

• Cinematic slow motion — when a player is down to their last piece, the camera zooms in for the final moment

• Hall of Fame — track your wins, losses and win rate

• Fully 3D physics with realistic piece weight distribution

• Thunderstorm skybox atmosphere

• Animated lobby with Chess Flicks artwork
