By Euyen Esquefa PonsChess Knights: Viking Lands is not a bad game, very much in the line of those already released by Minimol. The problem is that this time they have not been able to adapt the controls to the Nintendo Switch pad in a minimally acceptable way, and that makes the game lose many integers. A pity, because, as always, it is an interesting puzzle game at a good price.

By Jemma CassonChess Knights – Viking Land provides hours of puzzle-based gameplay using a twist on the usual chess formula. With some additional incentives to replay, and a little more finesse in the controls, this could be a must-have puzzle game. It's still worth checking out, particularly anyone with a penchant for chess.

By Stephen BrownChess is an iconic board game that is steeped in history and has stood the test of time. I remember constantly playing a version that was pre-installed on our family computer when I was younger. It comes as no surprise that its strategic and methodical concept lends itself well to the puzzle genre. Many puzzle games over the years have regularly been inspired by chess and Chess Knights: Viking Lands is no different.
