Tabletop Kingdom

Board

This is my recreation of the tabletop kingdom from Shining Force 2. They are shrunk down when entering a devils manor and placed upon the table, the only means of escape? a single hot air balloon. Others have attempted to escape before using magic to find that upon leaving the barriers of the table their magic waned and they fell to their death. Can they defeat the kings chess game and earn their freedom?

Thanks to Brother Hanan for the balloon!
