Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

In this game, you will be presented with many interesting and silly game modes for chess. They range from replacing your pawns as checkers, "Horde" mode or "Hill king" to smaller gameplay tweaks, like no castling. There are already 24 different game modes (including normal version of chess) in the game, but that number will surely increase. Currently, you can only play locally with a friend, but I will try to add online multiplayer. The game is fully fleshed out, with everything you would expect from other chess apps. I hope you will enjoy this game! Current game modes (all have an explanation in-game): Good old chess, Horde mode, Immobile king, Three checks to win, Checkers, Fast pawns, Brave sir Robins, Lazy pieces, Slow pawns, Crownvirus, Rosen-Botez chess, Slow knights, Where are the reinforcements?!, No castling, Fast chess, Fast clock for winners, Fast clock for losers, Random, Hill king, All rooks are queens, Ultra pawns, Super king, Fight to the death, Segregation

Chess but mess APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?
