PUZZLE BOARD CHESS PRO
Welcome to a new era of chess where the board changes every time you play.
Puzzle Board Chess Pro challenges you to think creatively. It’s a game of strategy, intuition, and adaptability - never repetition.
GERMAN (Deutsch), FRENCH (Français) and SPANISH (Español) translations available. MORE TO COME!
HOW TO PLAY
Build Your Battlefield.
Place the puzzle tiles to create your territory. Use pawns as markers.
Deploy Your Army
Swap off the pawns and place the higher chess pieces on the board. 1-minute time limit!
Go For Checkmate.
Outsmart your opponent and win. Pieces move as they do in regular chess, but now with a new terrain and completely new starting positions. Only Knights can jump over the gaps!

KEY FEATURES
Endless Terrain Possibilities
A board that’s anything but standard. Every time you play, you build a brand new board, so no two games, or strategies, are ever the same.
Same rules. Wildly different game.
You still win with a checkmate. But now, rooks hit dead ends, Knights jump ravines, and Bishops slip through tight diagonal seams
Skip the slow start with no pawns
We took out the pawns so you get straight to the good stuff. You’re in it from turn one with the power pieces, leading to quicker confrontations and shorter, sharper games.
Elevate Your Game
This is for chess lovers who crave fresh tactical challenges. For puzzle fans who want more depth. And for anyone who’s ready to reimagine what a “perfect move” looks like
Quick Setup, Easy Storage
No unfolding boards or piece piles - just snap and go. All tiles and pieces fit neatly in one travel-ready box, making it perfect for travel and spontaneous play.
Tiles so sturdy you can spin the board
PLEDGE TIERS

• 5 mm thick, interlocking, sturdier than the original.
• Each represents 4 squares of the chess board. 16 tiles would make a full board, but we give you an extra neutral tile to start the game.
• They reverse color when you flip them over, so you can always maintain the alternating checkerboard pattern even though the shape changes.
