Gambonanza Launches on iOS, Android and Steam

Overview

• Blukulélé's Gambonanza went live Friday on iOS, Android and Steam as a $5.99 download with no in-app purchases.
• The roguelike reworks chess by pushing risky 'gambits' and letting you break traditional move rules.
• You can upgrade the board over a run and keep pieces in reserve to drop when a fight turns.
• Matches often play on smaller boards, and wins come from capturing every enemy piece rather than checkmate.
• The developer says newcomers can succeed without chess knowledge, a choice meant to widen the audience.
