About this game

Collect cards, build decks, and battle fierce opponents in Top Check, a roguelike deckbuilder and card game inspired by the classic game of chess. Demonstrate your deck building prowess in the Roguelike Run game mode, or clash with a CPU opponent using your favorite constructed deck. With many unique pieces and abilities, only the best strategists will emerge victorious. Do you have what it takes to reach the top? Top Check distinguishes itself from other chess-inspired roguelikes in the following ways: The game takes deckbuilding literally . Pieces have card forms and you build a deck using those cards. You're not just playing with pieces; use action cards to devise creative synergies. Make a mistake? Use the undo ability to turn back time and recover gracefully. There's always a chance! Start each stage at full power and choose a new randomized modifier. The King is in the house; checkmate your opponent to claim victory! Or enable Conquest Mode to win by capturing all your opponent's other pieces. Will you devise a strategy around copying important pieces? Or perhaps dominate the board using synergy between pieces of the same type. Whatever you choose, the possibilities are sure to captivate your inner strategist. Top Check has plenty of features to keep you coming back for more, including: Rich tactical combat 120 cards with tons of original pieces and unique abilities A dedicated roguelike game mode with 10 ascension levels 30 unique items and over 20 challenge modifiers A 1v1 CPU Versus game mode Background, board, and piece color options so you can choose your own aesthetic

Steam marketplace comparison data

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Oct 16, 2026 to Oct 16, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $11.99
  • Highest observed: $11.99

Top Check: A Chess Card Game's USD price history spans from Oct 16, 2026 to Oct 16, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $11.99, the highest is $11.99, and the first visible tracked price is $11.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Top Check: A Chess Card Game's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $11.99, from Oct 16, 2026 through Oct 16, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $11.99. The latest run records $11.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $11.99
  • Current list price: $11.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Top Check: A Chess Card Game at $11.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
