Developer RedDeerGames' cartoony and family-friendly take on the classic game of chess, **Brawl Chess ** , is a solid experience for both newcomers and veterans of the game. With multiple difficulty levels, indicators showing where pieces are able to be moved, and robust AI there is something on display for all kinds of players. Brawl Chess does suffer from a lack of content, however, and many of the cosmetic options are locked behind microtransactions, which may turn off quite a few gam

**Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl ** was announced early July 13. A Super Smash Bros. -style fighting game , Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl will feature characters from well-known shows from the network fighting in an all-out brawl against one another. The initial trailer revealed characters and faces from Spongebob Squarepants, Ren & Stimpy _ and _Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles , among others, with more promised to be unveiled at a later date. Characters from two of Nickelodeon's most popular shows, Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra , were notably absent, but silhouettes from Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl's cover art indicates the elemental masters may be making an appearance sooner than fans th

So far, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl's box art is composed only of fighter silhouettes, not even showing those already announced in the roster. To the left of the shadowed cover art is an image that looks strikingly familiar to Korra. The silhouette holds a flexed arm out with a clenched fist, leading back to the shadow of a head that seems to mirror Korra's early series hairstyle with three distinct ponytails. Just below the silhouette that resembles Korra is the shadow of an outstretched human hand. With the Avatar universe top of mind, it closely resembles the hand and sleeve of Aang. Aang is frequently seen with his hand outstretched, a pose matching the shadow on the cover

Given Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra are two of Nickelodeon's strongest IPs, transcending generations of fans, it was puzzling that Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl's reveal didn't lead with Aang and Korra on the initial roster. As the game isn't set to launch until the fall, it's possible developers are holding that announcement until closer to the release date in order to ramp up hype around the game. However, keen-eyed fans may have seen both avatars on Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl's cover

While Brawl Chess is more streamlined than a standard game of chess, and therefore more user friendly, it is a little frustrating to not be able to perform some more advanced strategic chess moves in-game. For example, if the player manages to get one of their pawns to the other side of the board it is automatically promoted to a Queen. While a player would most likely make this choice anyway, there are situations where it is more advantageous to promote to a Knight instead. This is a minor issue, but more experienced chess players will definitely notice the lack of more advanced featu

There's also a stage set in a junkyard. Most likely, this stage from Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is related to Aaahh!!! Real Monsters . In that show, the monsters live in a junkyard, so this would be the perfect setting for them. The other option would be Hey Arnold! , as the look of the stage matches the look of that show. The trailer also shows off a graveyard stage that could be related to the Real Monsters or several other Nick properties like Invader Zim . There's also a stage set at a carnival that seems to be Glove World from Spongebob Squarepan

Brawl Chess does a great job of redefining the way chess is supposed to look. Each of the chess pieces have been completely redesigned in order to represent cartoonish soldiers facing each other down on the battlefield. This is helpful for those who aren't very familiar with the game and find typical chess pieces a little too similar to keep track of. In Brawl Stars brawlers|https://brawlstarsfans.Com/ Chess telling the difference between a Rook and a Queen is a simple as a quick glance, and it gives each piece a little more character than us

If players do find themselves growing bored of the AI they can always find a friend or family member to play with in local multiplayer. On the Switch this is as easy as docking the system and each player grabbing a Joy-Con. Switching between single-player and multiplayer is simple, but the biggest downside is that there are only a couple of different characters to choose from. There are several more characters that the player does have access to, but they are locked behind microtransacti

Avatar: The Last Airbender ran on Nickelodeon from 2005 - 2008, while The Legend of Korra aired from 2012 - 2014. The former follows Aang, the avatar who had been missing for 100 years. He must learn to master all four elements in order to bring the fire nation to heel and restore balance between the nations. The Legend of Korra is about Aang's successor, Korra, who has to work to bring unity on the physical and spirit realms alike.
