- Simple, clean graphics. There’s a CRT mode that makes everything look like it’s on a fuzzy old school TV so that’s neat. There’s only 1 song that plays, but it’s ominous, chilling, and entirely fitting. There’s a simple story of you playing as The Black King who is fighting to reclaim his throne after all of his subjects left because you’re a terrible despot.

- The gameplay was deceptively simple but had a good amount of depth. You play as a chess king, but instead of moving you can also use your shotgun. If you beat the round, you get to choose between 2 sets of a randomly generated perk for yourself and your enemies for the next round. Try and beat 12 rounds making yourself and your enemies increasingly stronger.

- My only gripe is that I wish there was more. The game is extremely short once you find your footing. After my first win I had already unlocked 65% of the perks.

- A great premise that seems like a joke at first but has a lot to offer. Although I only beat it once at the time of this review, I’m going to keep playing it because there are other modes and guns to unlock for different playstyles. Such a breath of fresh air to play a tight, polished game that was easy to pick up and much harder to put down.
