How to play Chess Tactics

Defeat every enemy piece to clear the chamber and advance. Move your king by clicking or tapping a highlighted square, or use WASD / Arrow Keys. Select an enemy to aim, then click it again or press Space to shoot. Press R to reload and Shift to use Dash. Every move, shot and reload spends a turn, so watch enemy attack patterns and plan carefully. Clear chambers to earn upgrades, unlock weapons and survive all floors.
