1 ADA is the lowest amount on the Cardano chain. I'd prefer it to be much lower for this game. I'm releasing an update soon where you'll be able to make multiple moves with one transaction (still 1 ADA), but that's the only way I've found to lower the cost of playing.

Make it sidechain. And find some use case, turn based game is lame on blockchain. Maybe tournament with multiple parties and validation of winners.
This seems to be a Cardano staking company who are trying to market themselves. I doubt they’d want to go with a sidechain since their entire business is to have people stake in the main chain.

They could go with a layer 2 network, but Cardano hasn’t implemented smart contracts or their Hydra state channels system yet.

What? You can send 0.01 ADA or less, can't you? + maybe .12 for gas.
Nope, lowest amount is 1 ADA, transaction fees are usually around 0.17. I'd expect this to be lowered in the future. 1 ADA wasn't much until a few months ago really.
