Horse Race Chess

Horse Race Chess is a lively 3D board game that recreates the classic race-and-capture experience with colorful visuals and simple, dice-driven mechanics, making it a great pick for casual sessions or competitive play. You move horses around a shared track, kick rival pieces back to start, and race to occupy finish slots using rolls, doubles and tactical choices. The app supports offline play against a bot or pass-and-play with friends, as well as online matches when you want opponents over the internet, so players can enjoy short strategic rounds solo or with others.

Key Features
