The Knight was the first chess piece added to the game, added in the update A Little Rain Must Fall. They were "strategically placed for maximum pain" around the Things, their purpose to guard the things and stop the player. Their sounds are made by a bagpipe.

The Bishop was the second chess piece to be added, in the Doorway to Adventure update. They can shoot lightning bolts from a distance that are fairly hard to dodge. They drop a Purple Gem when killed, unlike the other chess monsters who only drop Gears.

The Castle (or the proper name, The Rook) was the next chess piece to be added. Castles take the appearance of a rhino with a snout that looks like a castle's battlement. They charge at the player at an alarming speed and ram them. Their attacks can also deal damage to other creatures and Naturally Occuring Objects. They are able to attack at a close range.
