==Gameplay==
The rules of the game are just the default rules of chess. During a game, selecting a piece will show the available places to move to. When an available square is selected, pieces walk one or jump two spaces to it and queens, bishops and rooks run three or more spaces to that square. When captured, pieces do a certain death explosion depending on the piece that captured it before the capturing piece moves to the square the captured piece was standing on.
===Mission Mode===
In mission mode, the player plays a three-round chess tournament against the AI. In the first game the AI is at easy difficulty, in the second game the AI is at medium difficulty and in the third and final game, the AI is at hard difficulty. When the player wins the final game, the theme the match was played in gets unlocked in free mode. If the player loses or the game ends in a stalemate, the player has to rematch.
===Free Mode===
Themes can be unlocked in free mode by completing their tournament in mission mode. In this mode, the player can choose the difficulty of the game when playing against the AI. Multi-player mode can also be selected here. Alternatively, the player can watch the computer play against itself.
