Buy Checkmate: The Red General’s Last Move PC key

Checkmate: The Red General’s Last Move is a single-player roguelite built around turn-based battles on a 9×10 battlefield. You control Red’s last General and try to survive an overwhelming enemy army, using cannon fire, movement and tactical choices to break through the encirclement and reach the enemy General.

Tactical battles

Moving, firing and upgrading each give the enemy another chance to act. Chariots, horses, cannons and soldiers advance according to their own rules, and a mistake can leave your General with no escape. You move, brace your cannon, reload and fire, using enemy pieces as cannon screens and judging each blast radius. You can choose between a quick, scattered shot and a more precise aimed attack; combat also includes melee.

Build your tactics

Choose cards to improve your firepower, range and ammunition or add special tactics. As your build grows stronger, the enemy also gains abilities, units and rule changes, making the board more dangerous. The game includes extensive card builds and rule combinations, evolving enemy armies and increasing endgame pressure.

Campaign and challenges

You can play a single-player campaign or take on endless challenges. Multiple piece skins and achievement challenges are also included.
