Buffs
This isn't just normal chess without a king to checkmate, you can upgrade your pieces. You get 5 slots in which you can place the buffs you come across throughout your run. Ranging from a buff that allows your rooks to ram through pieces to knights being able to move near infinitely.
Items
Just like in Mario Kart, you can slot up to 2 items & use them any time. From bombs to potions that summon ghost pawns, use these to give yourself even more of an edge against your opponents.
Different Rooms
Throughout the game you will come across different rooms, each with their own special environments. From grass that hides the type of piece that's in it, to quicksand that swallows your pieces & even minibosses with their own armies.
