Chess-inspired puzzle roguelike. Demo - single IAP unlocks full game. The demo is ad-free. It contains a single character and dungeon. Pawnbarian is a turn-based puzzle roguelike with bite-sized, but challenging sessions. Play cards to control your hero like a chess piece on a tiny dungeon board, outmaneuver enemies with their assortment of tricky abilities, and become the mightiest warrior of the Chesslands! Features - Use a deck of chess pieces to hack and slash through hordes of monsters. - Pick up the basics instantly if you're familiar with chess, or learn in minutes if you aren't. - Carefully plan your moves to navigate challenging, emergent tactical situations. - Spend treasure to upgrade your cards with additional powers. - Blitz through quick 15-30 minute runs - or die trying. - Take on the infinite post-run Gauntlet to see how long you can survive. - Pick from 6 characters to conquer 3 dungeons, all requiring an unique approach. - Progress through Chains, a series of extra difficulty modifiers. Not Features - No permanent upgrades, and not much that needs unlocking. The progress and satisfaction come from your growing mastery of the game's elegant systems! - No complex and varied builds. The shops provide a few key decisions, but the bulk of the roguelike depth lies in how you approach the emergent combat puzzles!
