How Chess plays
The board follows normal chess rules. You play White by default and the computer answers after each move; the options menu changes the level, side and board orientation.
Hint explains a legal move instead of only highlighting a piece, which makes the game useful for players who are still learning. Take back removes your move and the reply together.
Who might enjoy it
A good fit for players who want a real game rather than a drill, and for anyone who needs a quick opponent without creating an account. The club levels are approachable but still punish careless openings.
Controls and device requirements
Click a piece and then its destination square. Hint names a move, Take back lifts your last move and the reply, and the board can be flipped from the options menu.
