Auto Necrochess

If you're a fan of brain teasing games with a dark twist, you've got to check out Auto Necrochess. Created by Stopsignal, this free indie gem drops you into a beautifully eerie gothic world where chess meets supernatural strategy. It’s like stepping into a haunting storybook where you guide a troubled heroine on her quest to overthrow a cruel king using her necromantic abilities. The atmosphere is thick with fantasy and tension, making every move feel meaningful.

What really sets Auto Necrochess apart is how it blends the deep thinking of chess with the fast paced fun of auto battlers. You’ll need to think on your feet placing books strategically on the board, combining units for maximum impact, and keeping up with the king’s growing power. The controls are smooth, with handy keyboard shortcuts that let you reroll options or launch attacks without breaking your flow. It’s intuitive once you get the hang of it, though some players have mentioned occasional crashes that can pull you out of the moment. Still, if you enjoy tactical challenges wrapped in a moody, artistic package, this one’s worth your time.
