// Chess-inspired board engine + real-time arena combat

Dark Squares

A Battle Chess x Archon hybrid on a 9x9 board: custom pieces, a shifting light/dark luminance cycle, and 5 power squares tip the odds. When pieces clash, drop into a fast, skill-based duel — dodge, attack, and unleash each piece's unique ability.
