In chess, the kings may never kiss. Has this game always been about forbidden love?

Violent Delights

Violent Delights is a chess-based RPG about Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet. It depicts the Capulet’s masquerade in Romeo and Juliet, when the two protagonists first meet. The chess board represents the Capulet’s great chamber. Play your cast of characters, and when you capture your partner’s pieces, you may act out the scene in a Firebrands-style mini-game.

Will Romeo and Juliet (the kings) meet in adjacent squares to kiss? Or will the social order prevail, protecting them from their innocent love?
