Move the White chess pieces on the daily board to capture all Black pieces.

Playlin'sGuide

Echo Chess is a daily logic puzzle inspired by chess movement but with a unique twist: every capture transforms you into the piece you just ate. Black pieces never move, and your job is to clear the board using clever sequencing and strategy.

How it works:

  • You control all White pieces; Black pieces remain static.
  • Drag a piece to any valid square to move or capture.
  • When you capture a piece, your piece changes type to match the one you took.
  • Dark red squares are walls: only knights can jump over them.
  • You can switch between any of your White pieces at any time.
  • Capture every Black piece to win the puzzle.

Each day brings a new handcrafted board with different walls, layouts, and capture orders.


Why we like it:

  • โœ…Brilliant fusion of chess logic and puzzle design.
  • โœ…The โ€œtransform on captureโ€ mechanic creates deep strategic planning.
  • โœ…Quick rounds, but wonderfully thinky.

Hint: Look ahead two or three captures: the piece you become often matters more than the piece you are.
