Battle vs. Chess is a kind of spiritual successor to the old Battle Chess of the late Eighties; a game that incorporated chess with combat animations to create a modern variant of the traditional strategy game. I say “kind of” because beyond the animated-chess conceit there’s no actual connection between the games. Different studios, no relation, maybe a slight whiff of copyright infringement, but try and ignore that".
Who does not know the wonderful game of chess. It is believed that the game originated in India. Over the years, the rules have changed, making chess what it is today.
"Check vs. Mate is a title I heard about while over in Europe back in 2010 (known as Battle vs. Chess in the European countries). It was a title that promised me my childhood. The 3-page fold-out poster that came with the local German magazine offered me so much. Battle Chess would be back with a burning vengeance." (darkzero)
