All your pieces have defected to white, leaving you with nothing but your king and a trusty shotgun. Play as the Shotgun King: each turn choose to move your king or shoot an enemy, then move again to reload. Avoid checkmate and blast the enemy king to clear a floor, then pick between two random upgrade pairs (one for you, one for the opposition) to shape your next run.
Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate can be downloaded.
Key features:
- Fast, roguelike chess runs (about 20 minutes)
- Unique move-or-shoot turn mechanic with forced reload movement
- 15 difficulty ranks to master
- Unlockable cards and over 100 achievements
- Endless mode for high-score play
- Chase mode where waves of enemies assail you from all sides
Patch notes for v1.620: More bugfixes
Hello Royals,Here's another patch just in time for your regal weekend! This one fixes almost all the issues that were reported to us.

We'll take care of both these issues next week!If you find any other bugs, please let us know about it on our Discord!Here's the full changelog for this version:\ Fixed a crash when a black piece's placement threatened an Imperial Shot Put\ Black Pieces can no longer attack Imperial Shot Puts.\ Bushido no longer disables folly shields after its first use during a same turn.\ Pawns can no longer use Lightfoot to get close to the king if you have August Presence.\ Dead Flesh Wall pawns can now be pushed with knockback.\ You can now use a grenade after reloading it by jumping over a piece with the Attila if you didn't have any grenade when the turn started.\ In the Bold Plan menu, you can now choose cards that were recycled or unchosen during the card choice just past.\ Switching from mouse controls to gamepad controls while on the disrupt menu will now resume the proper controls.\ Stoning stones now have a small trail showing you their direction.\ You can now hold ALT to force aim over other interactions.\ Switched to single card inspection because of a visibility issue with the Extra White Choice burden in Charnier. (this will also make our lives way easier for future updates, thanks for understanding)\ Using RB to go to souls now works even while using the trackpads...
