The Queen’s Gambit: The Board Game

Can you visualize chess games like Beth Harmon in The Queen’s Gambit; thinking multiple moves ahead of her opponents?

In The Queen’s Gambit: Das Damengambit; you can try to outwit your fellow players by playing with as much foresight as she did. Each of the 2-4 players has their own gambit piece that moves across the chessboard; and your turns are always planned three moves in advance by laying down cards upon which chess pieces are depicted. On your turn; you reveal your first card; move the gambit piece according to what’s depicted on that card; ideally capturing chess tiles in the process; then refill your row by placing a third card in your personal queue.

Once all the chess tiles have been captured; the game ends and whoever has collected the most tiles wins.
