About this game

Up here, the toys found an old chessboard. Nobody taught them the rules, so each one came up with their own way to play. Not every plan turned out to be a good one, though.

Loftet is a chess game for kids. Karl Anker grabs every piece he can reach. Thyra brings her queen out first. Heksa copies your child's moves. The challenge is to spot what each toy is up to and find a way to win.

Two ways to play
• Game: three hints, two undos and one reroll help when your child gets stuck. A reroll asks the toy to try another move. Use one helper per move.
• Battle: no helpers. Beat a toy in Battle to earn its mascot button.

Made for children
• No ads and no chat.
• No account needed. Your child can play without giving a name, age or email address.
• Works offline.

Save and replay
Continue an unfinished game or replay a saved one. The "Who was ahead" graph shows who had the advantage at each point. Stats keeps track of games and wins.

Part of the Sjakkpass universe
The toys guard the levels of the chess passport. What your child learns there is the key to beating them at their own game.

Loftet is made by Sjakkpass. Founder Fleur Sommerseth is a Woman Grandmaster in chess with a PhD in education. Grandmaster Simen Agdestein, nine-time Norwegian champion, is our advisor.

The toys began as plush prizes at Dragulf Chess Club's tournaments in Norway. And yes, "Loftet" is Norwegian for "the attic." :-)

Available in English, Norwegian, Ukrainian, Danish, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish, Swedish, Turkish and Russian.

When a game ends, a copy is sent to us without a name or device ID to help improve the toys. Offline games are sent when the device reconnects.
