We keep working on Pawn of the Dead. I have two news. 1. Cinematics are almost completed. Turkish voice acting of Kings and revisions on some animations are all that are left. We published a video of Chapter 2's English cinematic to show you how our cinematics will be like. [previewyoutube=3CuFp8VA0Gg;full][/previewyoutube] 2. AI will be improved. Some players enjoyed the current version of AI. But some others (especially chess players) found it too weak. So I have decided to improve it, so that we can target chess players. Casual and Normal difficulty modes will remain the same, Hardcore difficulty mode will have Minimax and alpha-prunning algorithms. This means that the 64 levels of the campaign mode will need to be remade, because they must be beatable by the players when they play against the new AI. I am sorry that the game will be delayed because of the new AI, but I want to release the best that Pawn of the Dead can be on full release.

Chess became unfair, like everything else!
Pawn of the Dead is a 3D game based on chess, in the style of Battle Chess. What makes it a unique game is its mechanic: When a Black (undead) piece captures a White piece, that White piece turns into a Black one! But don’t worry, all the levels are designed so that you can always win the match.
Your mission as Leonard, the White King, is to protect the White Kingdom against the marching army of undeads. Elona, the White Queen, is the best warrior in the kingdom, you won’t be able to succeed without her help. During your quest, you will face a sinister reflection that you forgot a long time ago.
We currently have a random level generator, which provides you procedural challanges. It creates levels that are challenging enough, but it guarantees you that there is always at least one solution. It's possible to play as Black side in this mode.
