ArcaChess

ArcaChess is a chess game in which every capture is decided by a real-time duel. When a piece attacks another, both pieces enter an arena where the players control them directly: they move, aim and fire spells until one of them is defeated. The winner keeps the square.

Each piece type has its own health, speed, fire rate and spells, so a pawn can defeat a queen if its player wins the duel. Bonuses appear during arena fights, such as healing, speed, fire rate and ricochet shots.

The game includes a solo mode against an AI with three difficulty levels, and online play with ranked, casual and private matches. Social features include friends, private messages, guilds with a shared chat, and a world leaderboard based on ELO. Players can unlock cosmetic avatars, piece skins, boards and sounds.

ArcaChess is free to play and available on iOS, Android and in web browsers.
