For the Crown: Dominion mixed with Chess

Dice Tower review here: 


It looks pretty interesting.  Maybe not particularly innovative (Chess variants are dime a dozen, and it totally does seem like Dominion) but there might be some people here who would appreciate the combination.

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

Haha, I really thought this is a joke and I really thought this really can't be good game. But it actually might.
What worries me though is that the cards might not be very well balanced. If anyone from here is able to play this, I'd love to hear a review.

I'm thinking it probably won't be very much like chess... sure it's got the pieces that move similarly, but there's no way it can replicate the sort of positional strategy there is in chess. still, looks interesting.

I imagine that any Dominion spinoff that Donald releases will be similar to this game.  Probably not on a chess board though.  He often talks of having a game that involves a board and a deck of cards.  That's how Kingdom Builder started.
