This game scratches the satisfying tactical itch you get when solving a chess puzzle, while being something else entirely. They’re my favorite type of board game to play, and I especially love chess and all of its variants. I think 8,2€ is much for it, but you could pick it up for 3-4€. I enjoyed Pawnbarian and can recommend it, but it would have been nice to see new monsters and areas in the game. If you have some short time to kill and you don’t mind the same setting over and over again, this game is for you. If you want to have some variety in the setting or in the gameplay, then you might have some issues with the game, but still, you can basically complete the 3 dungeons in 30 minutes max.

There are 3 dungeons to take on, however if you beat a dungeon multiple times with the same character, it gets a bit difficult every time.

Probably my biggest complaint about the game, it’s length. Pick up the basics instantly if you’re familiar with chess, or learn in minutes if you aren’t. Pawnbarian helps out the player a lot, by showing which space is dangerous, how many hits you can get there, also you can see where you could move and what the monsters abilities are. Soundtrack is nothing special, but fits for the game. The graphics are simple, but the characters and monsters are good looking. It doesn’t seem much, but there are different enemies with their own ability and the different starter characters has their own rules to play, so you can have different challenges most of the time. Once you defeat every enemy on the board, you can buy new pieces from the gold you earn from the floor and basically this gameplay repeats. Getting to the floor you get a small chess board with monsters to slay and in your hand, there are 3 cards from your deck with chess pieces and you use these to move on the board, depending what piece is on the card. The base idea is pretty good: you can choose different characters at the beginning, which they have different starting pieces and ability. Use a deck of chess pieces to hack and slash through hordes of monsters. Pawnbarian is taking the basic rules of chess and mix it with roguelike game elements: your goal is to conquer a 7 level dungeon by getting new chess pieces to your deck to use. It is undeniable that the game content of this game is not much for the time being, but the design of the gameplay has great potential, and I look forward to its continued improvement.
