Blundercheck Spooky Blitz Chess & Musical Chess (Hampton)
October 17 @ 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm
3 hours of continuous spooky blitz chess … plus MUSICAL CHESS! Blundercheck returns to Frank’s Monster Munchies October 17!
Please Pre-Register at https://BenjaminBlundercheck.com
Part 1: The Blitz Arena
Three hours of unlimited games. Win as many as you can, and rack up bonus points for win streaks. Finish a game and you may challenge a rematch for revenge or jump straight to the next available player. Enter whenever you like, take breaks whenever you need, and climb the standings for three hours!
Part 2: Musical Chess
Two rounds of Blundercheck’s signature elimination game, and it gets excitingly chaotic. Think musical chairs, except when the music stops you move to a different board and pick up someone else’s position mid-game. Play fast or you’re out. Choose your boards wisely!
