Jigsaw Chess
by GdBIV
Jigsaw Chess adds chess figures with a playful, jigsaw-inspired look, for players who want to play chess inside a Minecraft world.
What it does
The mod adds a set of chess figures that can be placed on a board and used to play a game. Pieces can be picked up instantly, and crafting recipes turn pawns into other figures when they reach the far edge of the board, with matching reverse recipes. Two sets of figures are included. Jigsaw Chess is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.18.2 and 1.20.1, with 1.1.0 for 1.20.1 as the latest file. Both the server and every player need it, and it is released under the MIT License, though it is not open source.
