About

Devil's Chess is a deck of cards that compliments traditional chess. It is easy to learn, infinitely re-playable, and is wildly addictive. Devil's Chess brings modern board game mechanics to an old classic. With Devil's Chess you get a bit of randomness, new mechanics and card combos, and a whole lot of new tricks to surprise your opponent. Devil's Chess brings Chess out of the 6th century and into the 21st! Setting up the game is easy. Shuffle both decks, and set them to the left and right of the chessboard. Each player is dealt a hand of three Playable Cards. To begin the game flip over one Rule Card. Players then take turns playing cards and moving pieces. When a player draws a “Devil's Chess” card, another new Rule Card is flipped over. At the beginning of your turn, draw a Playable card if you do not have three You may use or discard one Playable Card Your turn ends after you move a chess piece The game is over when a King is put into checkmate or when a “More Ways to Win!” condition is met by a player. With 30 unique Rule Cards and 90 Playable Cards, Devil's Chess is unbelievably re-playable. We know you'll make it a mainstay in your game library. —description from the publisher
