Pawnstorm Survive

Move an entire chess army as one in a 3D real-time survival battler. Your heroes attack automatically while you steer through enemy swarms, aim spells, and unleash an ultimate shaped by your formation.

Start with a lone Squire and grow your Board through combat. Choose recruits, weapon upgrades, and passives; merge matching pieces into stronger heroes. Farm jungle camps, challenge the Obsidian Dragon, and destroy three enemy towers to reach the fortress showdown.

How to play

Choose Easy, Normal, or Hard, then press Play. Move near enemies to let your Squire attack and collect the experience gems they drop.

• Choose one reward at each level-up: a new hero, a weapon upgrade, or a passive.
• Aim and release your spells while keeping the Board moving.
• Open the Board to rearrange your heroes and see your formation ultimate.
• Destroy the three enemy towers, then shatter the fortress crystal. Keep your own crystal safe from the rival.

Build your army

Recruit Squires, Vanguards, Oracles, Cragguards, Hexqueens, and Kingsbanes. Each hero type brings its own automatic weapon and aimed spell.

Three matching pieces of the same star rank fuse into a stronger piece. Your grid grows as you level, and the right weapon and passive upgrades unlock evolutions.

Choose your battles

Push the lane or detour into jungle camps for experience. The Obsidian Dragon rewards the army that slays it with a damage and movement-speed boon.

An AI rival builds its own army and pushes toward your crystal. Destroy the towers and reach the enemy fortress to trigger a showdown against the defending Board.
