About this game

Welcome to the 21st Anniversary Edition of Chess. Relieve boredom, have fun and exercise your mind all at the same time with this classic board game.

Regardless of your playing level, ZingMagic's multi award winning Chess is a fun, stimulating and challenging game for beginners and champions alike.

Even if you have never played Chess before, that’s not a problem. The game helps you at every step with hints, legal move display, piece move information, game information and over 20 levels of play enabling you to learn Chess at your own pace.

Chess is a two player game with a colourful history which can be traced back to its Indian ancestor, Chaturanga. In 1291 the Archbishop of Canterbury in England threatened clergy who continued playing Chess with a diet of bread and water.

The game has flourished over the years and is now one of the most popular board games in the world, requiring thought, skill and strategy to become successful.

The object of Chess is to capture the opponent's King. To capture the King you must place it in check. If the King cannot escape by itself, or with the help of its army, it is in checkmate and the King is captured.

First level is too tough for most people. Trust me, we don't have time for chess apps that offer no easy level. Don't bother replying - I read what you said to other people voicing the same concern. "Get better if level 1 is too much." Laughable. Why don't you make it play at 5 dan level and tell us to learn to stomach a punch.

For offline this app is okay(Except sound setup-really annoying sudden sounds & muted on other all moves) For ONLINE simply waste : 1)Everytime ask permission to connect with Google play games (if screen display dim/ turn off after 15 sec the app is asking the permission again)2)No user id (shows player for both - who is who?)3)Opponent rating not shown4)Timing for game not given5)Does they are really human opponent or engine?6)You won't get anything clearly in that UI (interface)7)ads to play

We dont have any control over your device requirement to ask permission to connect to Google Play. We dont control the name players have chosen for themselves - we use the name provided by Google Play. The self selected humans rating/level is clearly displayed. Connected games cost us money to host, ads are one option, modest IAP the other...
