About Who Wears The Crown?

Who Wears The Crown? combines chess with platforming. You control a pawn, play chess games to build platforms, then climb to the top of each level and claim its crown. Pawn movement requires timing and patience: a misstep can send you tumbling to the bottom, while a blunder in a chess game can also set you back.

Adventure mode

In Adventure, you start at the bottom of a map and climb through chess games played against the Stockfish chess engine. Checkmate Stockfish to gain a power-up that helps you navigate difficult boards. The mode has three difficulty settings:

  • Casual: Stockfish at 1000 Elo; jump failure is off, and resets or restarts return you to your current section.
  • Normal: Stockfish at 1300 Elo; jump failure is on, and resets or restarts return you to your current section.
  • Immortal: Stockfish at 1600 Elo; jump failure is on, and resets or restarts return you to the beginning of the level.

Stacks mode

Stacks is a shorter, more puzzle-focused mode with seven boards stacked vertically. Climb them as quickly as you can. It has three types of stack:

  • Modern Classics: games from recent history.
  • Influencers: famous games played by internet celebrities.
  • Endless: procedurally generated games based on a seed value.

Settings and scores

Custom settings let you adjust Stockfish's Elo and the difficulty of chess positions. Adventure and Stacks maps have high-score lists that record your fastest completion time. The fastest player's name appears on the crown at the top of each level.
