Chess The Old Game, Your Pace

Classic chess with a clean 2D board and plenty of ways to play it with co-op friends. Invite a Steam friend for a relaxed online match with no clock, share the same screen for local games, or practice against the AI and 777 puzzles first so you can win gracefully.

Is Chess worth it?

Chess is worth it if…

  • you want simple co-op games to play against friends
  • you like slow, turn-based tactics with time to talk
  • you want puzzles and AI practice between matches

Online and local matches with friends

This is chess built for playing with someone else. You invite a Steam friend, join their game, or start a quick online match, all with no time limit in the current online beta. Prefer the same couch, or the same keyboard? Pass the device back and forth for a local game with family and friends.

Add a clock when you want sharper, faster rounds. Take back a move when pride demands it, save the position, and settle the rematch later.

Practice tools for your next rematch

Losing to the same friend every Friday gets old. Warm up against AI opponents across several difficulty levels, from gentle beginner games to sterner strategic tests. Then work through 777 tactical puzzles to sharpen forks, pins, and mates.

A board editor lets you set up custom positions and replay tricky scenarios.

What else should you know?

Can you play it solo?

Yes. You can face AI opponents at several difficulty levels, solve 777 tactical puzzles, or set up positions in the board editor to study on your own.

Can you customize the board?

Yes. You can change board styles, backgrounds including a seasonal soccer-themed one, avatars, and sounds, plus save and load games and undo moves.
