A Noble Circle is from the creator of A Dark Room and The Ensign. If you’ve played those games, you’ll have a better idea of what to expect from A Noble Circle. If not, you have to try it anyway.

You can then send the game board to your opponent as a message and wait for a reply. Checkmate allows you to have multiple matches going at the same time across all of your iDevices.
