Eat Chess games.
Chess puzzles.

Eat Chess is not one game wearing four names. Snack Attack, Royal Merge, Rogue Tactics, and Capture each use chess ideas in a different way, from quick score-chasing to full tactics runs.

The menu

Same board family. Different games.

The series keeps the familiar shape of chess, then changes the job. One is about capture chains. One is about merging. One is a roguelite tactics run. One helps you play and record real chess.

Also from the same table

Not chess. Still ours.

Board Together: Math Practice is a separate educational game. Different subject, same care: quick rounds, real rules, and co-op play built for two people solving side by side.

House rules

Short rules. Real choices.

Familiar pieces, new jobs

A rook line or knight jump still feels like chess. The goal changes from game to game.

Readable for kids and adults

The rules explain quickly. The boards still leave room to think, plan, and recover from a bad idea.

Local first

The games are built around offline play, local saves, no ads, and no extra account to manage.
