As an avid player of strategy games like Chess, Risk, and Axis & Allies, I have always loved competitive board games. This passion always left me looking for new variants and ways that express strategic depth on a board. While building my fantasy world, Hailgalad, a game began to take shape before me. It started with blank playing cards marked with Sharpie. I wanted to solve the challenge of creating a simulation of a medieval fantasy pitch battle in the inspired confines of a checkered chess-like board. A game where positioning is everything and the use of finite resources must be strategically placed to achieve victory. After discovering Replit, I was able to translate those hand-drawn cards into a fully realized browser experience. Six months of development later, Chespel is ready. I cannot wait for you to try this game and I hope it brings you a sense of excitement whether it be against a computer, random online opponent, or even a friend!
