About This Game

Gameplay

Who Wears the Crown? is about controlling a little pawn and trying to get to the top of each level to claim your crown. Play your way through various chess games to build your platforms and climb higher and higher. Be careful though, much like the game of chess, the movement of your pawn requires timing and patience. One wrong maneuver could send you tumbling back down to the bottom of the level and start you over. It's not only about your platforming skill either. One blunder in any of the chess games could send you back as well!

Game Modes


Adventure
This is the main game mode in Who Wears the Crown?. Start from the bottom of the map and make your way very high up to claim the crown. The map contains a large number of chess games for you to navigate through. There are varying difficulties for all kinds of skill levels. The chess games are played against the Stockfish chess engine so make sure to have your thinking cap on!



Stacks
This game mode is similar to the Adventure mode but it is more puzzle based and much shorter. There are seven boards stacked straight on top of each other. Climb them as quick as you can! There are three main stacks:
  • Modern Classics - Games from recent history,
  • Influencers - Famous games played by internet celebrities,
  • Endless - Randomly generated games based on a seed value

Highscores

Completing each Adventure Mode and Stacks maps will enter you into a highscores list with your fastest time. If you are the fastest player to complete a level your name will be displayed on the crown at the top of each level for everyone else to see!
