It offers a different experience by adding stone transformation mechanics into chess

You can play regular chess, too, and it works, though there's an utter lack of inspiration behind the little battles between the chess pieces. Worse, the AI isn't going to throw up a challenge to anyone but the most beginner of chess beginners. Finally, it's all terribly ugly, most notably with the backgrounds, where we're meant to be able to fight in "towns", "graveyards", "castles" and other locations, but in practice, the developer just has just dropped a differently-shaped rock here and there and called it a day. There are exceptional options for chess on the Switch. Pawn of the Dead, meanwhile, is one of the poorest games on the console.
Chess has lost its justice, like everything else! Pawn of the Dead is a beautifully designed and very enjoyable game.

Not merely settling for being just a Chess simulation, I can at least respect Pawn of the Dead for trying to spice things up...
