Chess Maker

iOS Universel / Jeux

Create bizarre chess boards and play! No kings? All queens? Stacked odds? Anything goes in Chess Maker!

Features a board builder that lets players create their own chess board:
- Any shape within an 8x8 grid goes!
- Place as many or as few pieces as you like! The AI is not programmed to complain about an unfair match.
- Listen to music from your library while playing!

The same rules of standard chess apply, with a few exceptions:
- If a player has no king, they can only be defeated by capturing all of their pieces!
- Castling can be done in any direction, provided the king and rook have two empty spaces between them and neither has moved since the start of the game.
- Pawns come in four different varieties, one for each cardinal direction. They can move two spaces on their first move and can be promoted when they reach the edge of the board.

Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?

This update from Apple will improve the functionality of this app. No new features are included.

- Now available on iPad devices!
- Three more premade chess boards added: Jailbreak, Look Both Ways Before Crossing, and Chess vs Checkers.
- After 50 non-capture or non-pawn moves, the game will offer the player the chance to call a draw. If both players are controlled by the computer, a draw is automatically accepted.
- Fixed a bug where players could perform a castle across empty space, potentially getting their rook stuck out of bounds.
- Added an introductory message to the first launch.
- Added a message to inform the user that they need to adjust app permissions to allow Chess Maker to play music from their library. This message only appears if they deny access to their music library.
