Baldur's Gate Hints
Floor Puzzle: The Chess Game
1 of 8: This is the final puzzle on this level.
2 of 8: You are pieces in a chess game.
3 of 8: Each time one of your men makes a move that they could not make in a game of chess, they get hit by lightning.
4 of 8: My suggestion is to launch a bunch of fireballs at the edge of your vision -- it will soften up the opposing side.
5 of 8: Also shoot off things like stinking clouds or even cloud kills if you are powerful enough.
6 of 8: After you have gotten off enough of those kind of spells, rush on in.
7 of 8: When you kill the king, the rest die.
8 of 8: Then head down the door for the final level in the tower before the daemonknight.
