Story In 1986, three children obsessed with chess play again and again without ever stopping. Chess is their passion and their reason for living. “Checkmate” is their way of saying hello to one another. Years later, now brilliant science students, they decide to build a probe bound for the cosmos as their graduation project. Inside the probe rests a chess set , carefully stored in its case, intended for whoever might one day open it in the vastness of the universe. The probe launches into space. Our friends move on with their lives and never hear about it again. And yet... In the year 7026 , the probe gently bumps into the ship of three galactic explorers... They try the game, understand it, and fall in love with it. They decide to change a few rules and have some friends test it. While attempting to decipher the English text found inside the probe, and to give the game a new identity, they conclude that it shall be called... CHYSS .

Try it! Between turns, bonuses appear in the three central columns of the board. These bonuses create tactical objectives and let you unleash even more devastating COMBOS . To collect one, a unit must move onto its tile. Movement Orb : Restores your movement action for the current turn. Attack Orb : Restores your attack actio…
