About the Game

♞ Knight Paths

In Knight Paths, every match begins with a choice.

During the Mulligan Phase, you decide where your knight enters the board—shaping your entire strategy from the very first move. Once the game begins, players alternate turns just like in chess, with the white side moving first.

But there’s a twist:

Every square can only be used once.

Once visited—by you or your opponent—that square is gone forever.

⚔️ How It Plays

  • Control a single knight, moving exactly as in classic chess

  • Plan ahead as the board gradually closes off

  • Adapt as options disappear with every move

  • Capture your opponent—or leave them with nowhere to go

The only way back to a square… is through your opponent.

⏱️ Fast, Focused Matches

  • 3-minute games designed for quick, meaningful sessions

  • Online multiplayer – challenge real players

  • Offline mode with multiple AI difficulty levels

Easy to pick up, but each match becomes a test of foresight and control.

🧠 A Game of Space and Prediction

With no pieces to hide behind and no moves to undo, Knight Paths is about:

🏁 Win the Duel

Victory comes when you:
