About This Game
Shape the turn order in a speed-based tactical roguelike. Adapt to shifting battlefields, overcome unique bosses, and unlock powerful new abilities as you guide a band of idiots through four perilous and distinct regions!
Detailed Description
Outthink. Outlast. Outplay.
Step into a tactical roguelike where every battle is a puzzle, every move matters, and defeat is just the start of the story! Assemble your team of unique idiots and fight through 4 dangerous regions β each with its own enemies, gimmicks, and secrets... From goblin ambushes in dense forests to mind-bending traps in a forgotten library, every encounter forces you to adapt your strategy.
Chess with Idiots is a turn based strategy roguelike. You control a self made team of 'Idiots' with the goal of completing as many runs as possible. A run starts at the forest and ends at the final boss on top of the volcano. Finishing a run allows you to either continue, or completely end your run. If you decide to continue, you restart at the forest but will notice that all the enemies have become a lot stronger...
