Might & Magic: Chess Royale Critic Reviews

Might & Magic: Chess Royale is a decent representative of auto chess games, taking most mechanics from existing competitors. The hybridation with battle royale genre is only taken so far, which is a true pity.

Quotation forthcoming.

Your enjoyment of Might & Magic: Chess Royale will depend more on if you're an auto battler fan than if you're a battle royale fan. It's less a true blending of the genres and more an auto battler set in a battle royale. But it's a perfectly fine auto battler, a good way to flex your strategic chops, and a nice quick diversion when you don't have anything better to do; whole 100-person games can go by in ten minutes or so.

It might seem gimmicky, but Chess Royale is an effective introduction to an often-confusing genre.

All in all, despite Might & Magic: Chess Royale being free to play, I have a hard time recommending the game as anything other than an introduction to auto-battlers or a very casual experience to distract a few minutes while waiting in line. It's overly simplified and displays little in the way of character. With several games of this nature on the market, it's difficult to see how Chess Royale could compete.

Quotation forthcoming.

Might & Magic: Chess Royale is an excellent game for passing small bits of time, though the lack of depth makes it feel stale over time. Nothing revolutionary has been added to either genre here. Regardless, if proper updates persist, this could be an excellent addition to the autobattler genre.

A fantasy casino arena with a high coincidence factor and more gold management than regular tactical challenges. At least there are no micro-transactions.

Predictable and nice, if you like that sort of thing, but quick to go stale.
