This clever app has taken chess to an inventive new place, by turning the traditional pieces into ferocious savannah animals. With customizable colors, explosive sound effects and a variety of witty weaponry, Animal Chess is more action than any chessboard has ever seen. Players can become a tiger and detonate their opponent with TNT or choose to be an elephant and zap the enemy with a lightning bolt.
The bombastic action of the live, animated 3D animals is a sight to behold on the Windows* 8.1 tablet’s high-resolution screen. The lightning-fast processor and superior audio bring the energetic game to life. The Intel® Developer Zone offered guidance during development in order to guarantee successful optimization.
“Animal Chess is such a hilarious and engaging way to learn a complex strategy game like chess,” Andrew Tan, says CEO of The Interactive Studio. “The colors and animation are extraordinary on the Windows* 8.1 tablet’s vivid display. It’s a really entertaining experience.”
Animal Chess is now available for immediate download at the Windows* app store: https://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/f3ff33c7-151b-4eb4-bf10-bf966742e0e2
