View Game About Battle Chess
Battle Chess is a single player and multiplayer turn-based strategy game with fantasy and historical themes. It was developed by Interplay and was released on October 1, 1988. It received mostly positive reviews from players.
Battle Chess is a quite typical chess game, but it comes with a twist: all pieces are represented by small, realistic figures that walk around on the chessboard, and when one piece takes another, they both take part in an animated battle. There is a different animation for each permutation, depending on which pieces are capturing or being captured. You can also play in 2D without animation.
