♞ EVERY MOVE CHANGES THE BOARD

Knight Paths is a turn-based tactical duel built around one simple rule: every square can only be used once.

Control a single knight that moves exactly as it does in chess. The moment either player visits a square, that space is gone for the rest of the match.

With every turn, the board gets smaller. Routes disappear. Escape becomes harder. What begins as an open board gradually becomes a battle for the few paths that remain.

Capture the opposing knight—or leave it with nowhere to go.

⚔️ CHOOSE YOUR STARTING POSITION

Every match begins with the Mulligan Phase, where you choose where your knight enters the board.

Your first decision happens before the first move.

Choose a position that gives you room to maneuver, anticipate where your opponent will begin, and prepare for the territory battle ahead.

🧠 CONTROL THE SHRINKING BOARD

Knight Paths isn't about controlling an army. It's about controlling space.

Think several moves ahead. Cut off escape routes. Force your opponent toward dead ends while protecting the paths you'll need later.

A square that helps you now may be the square you desperately need three turns later.
