DarkZero

Every play is familiar but somehow still feels like a fresh and profoundly pensive challenge.

Pawnbarian charmed me, just like Militia used to. A solidly prepared game that should also hit the Nintendo Switch and mobile devices.

Pawnbarian is single-minded with a specific experience that it wants to offer. That experience is a challenging brain teaser using a classic and timeless game in new ways. Limitation is often king to innovation, and with that Pawnbarian calls checkmate.
