Sir Bombalot
Sir Bombalot is a variant of chess with pieces offering a myriad of different options at any given time. There are seven different pieces that do everything from jump multiple pieces to freezing those of your opponent's. When any of these pieces are used in combination they can drastically change the terrain of the board, altering both your and your opponent's strategy in a moments notice. Best summated as a shoot-em-up chess game. Our Review: Sir Bombalot is a unusual take on the traditional games of chess and checkers. Some of the pieces are far from traditional, including a Freezer which freezes all pieces within a one square radius, and a Pusher which can push other pieces around. Interesting, in a chess meets contemprorary arcade shooter kinda way, and worth a look if you're a fan of both or either.
