I read through this a few times. As far as I can tell you get some special pieces that get little side quests during the game. And if you achieve the side quest and win the game you get a bit of a bonus.
These pieces don’t actually have any mechanics properties. It’s just normal chess and you still have to win. Given how important every move in chess is… this seems like a really stupid idea. I mean on top of being a pay to earn web3 game, this one is really stupid. Plying chess games where both parties are making these nonsense choices… I can’t imagine this working at all.
I think you can redeem your points for money. So I guess you need to find that weird equilibrium of winning while also doing your weird gimmicks each time.
Ugh
Edit: to clarify, the gap between the best move you can identify and one that achieves your goals is likely going to be immense. And what’s weird about this thing is some goals will be easily achievable from a strong winning position while some will not. So the inevitable meta will almost certainly be getting a gimmick that benefits from winning, then trying to get into a winning position, then achieving your gimmick before your opponent resigns? If you have a gimmick that requires you to play poorly upfront… you’ll lose…
