About Time Travel Chess

Bringing the classic strategy game to a whole new dimension. Literally!

Have you ever wondered how time travel works? How does the past affect the present? If you are a sci-fi fan, a geek, or a person with curiosity, then you must try the Time Travel Chess!

Time travel chess bridges the gap between the fun of time travelling and strategy. The moves that are changed in the past have a direct effect on the present and incorporating the future element allows players to think more strategically. Each piece in the game has a different ability to time travel backward or forward in time, interlinking the past, the present, and the future.

***THE AI IS STILL UNDER DEVELOPMENT DUE TO THE COMPLEXITY OF THE EXTRA DIMENSION AND WILL BE RELEASED IN FUTURE UPDATES***


How time travel chess works:

o Normal chess rules apply in time travel chess.

o Pieces can travel up to 4 frames forward or backward from the present.

o All moves have to be initiated from the present.

o To time travel, select a piece in present time, then click on the timeline (the numbered circles) and choose a time frame you want to move to, the red squares indicate the possible moves.

o Travelling backward in time allows you to take your opponent's pieces in the past, and this has an effect in the present.

o Travelling forward in time, allows your piece to enter into the “time warp” (the four squares at the edge of the board) and you can decide where and when it reappears in the future. This gives you the strategic choice of blocking your opponent's advancement.

o Each piece's ability to travel in time is affected by their normal ability to travel in space, by interchanging the time and space dimension.


How the pieces move:

o The King travels diagonally, vertically or horizontally in any dimension 1 square at a time.

o The Queen travels diagonally, vertically or horizontally in any dimension.

o Rooks travel vertically or horizontally in any dimension.

o Knights travel in an “L” shape in any 2 dimensions.

o Bishops travel diagonally in any 2 dimensions.

o Pawns can only travel in space.

The time travel works nice, not too overwhelming. Needs ai. Bug: king and queen have wrong sprites (the king should have the sprite of the queen and vica versa). Needs some kind of a tutorial. A pity this game won't ever earn much since most mobile players won't even find it or will get scared by the complexity. At the same time, it's too basic for a Steam PC release. Still, this is an invention and the author deserves high praise! Bug 2: castling is possible with time jump, the rook doesn't propagate

Very intriguing game. Love the concept of time travel - I think whats cool is that you improve your ability to strategise and think multiple moves in advance. I recommend this game to anyone who loves chess! Cant wait for the AI! would love to play other chess enthusiasts!!

It’s easy to get started if you’ve ever played chess before: just pieces can move backwards (and forwards!) in time. First you select the piece you want to move, and optionally whether you want to move backwards/forwards in time, then the possible moves are highlighted for you – which makes it simple to figure out how to play without reading lots of rules. You’ll need to play with someone else, as there’s no AI yet. (But that’s more fun anyway.)
