Knight Paths
A minimalist battle of movement, memory, and mind. Inspired by the timeless strategy of Chess, Knight Paths distills tactical gameplay to its purest form. Two players. One knight each. No second chances.
♞ Knight Paths
In Knight Paths, every match begins with a choice.
During the Mulligan Phase, you decide where your knight enters the board—shaping your entire strategy from the very first move. Once the game begins, players alternate turns just like in chess, with the white side moving first.
But there’s a twist:
Every square can only be used once.
Once visited—by you or your opponent—that square is gone forever.
⚔️ How It Plays
Control a single knight, moving exactly as in classic chess
Plan ahead as the board gradually closes off
Adapt as options disappear with every move
Capture your opponent—or leave them with nowhere to go
The only way back to a square… is through your opponent.
⏱️ Fast, Focused Matches
3-minute games designed for quick, meaningful sessions
Online multiplayer – challenge real players
Offline mode with multiple AI difficulty levels
Easy to pick up, but each match becomes a test of foresight and control.
🧠 A Game of Space and Prediction
With no pieces to hide behind and no moves to undo, Knight Paths is about:
Thinking ahead
Controlling territory
Forcing your opponent into a dead end
Every move shapes the battlefield. Every decision matters.
