About this game

Chess: Fog of War is chess with hidden information — the legendary Dark Chess variant. Your vision is limited to the squares your pieces can reach. Every move reveals something new, and hides something else. Scouts matter. Ambushes happen. The part of the board you can't see is the part that decides the game.

FACE THE ORACLE
An AI built for the fog. Three levels — Apprentice, Strategist and Grandmaster — from a friendly sparring partner to a deep multi-core engine that models what it cannot see and hunts you through the darkness.

FIVE WAYS TO PLAY
• The Duel — pass & play fog chess, each player sees only their own vision
• Face the Oracle — fog chess vs the AI
• Timed Duel — add a chess clock, vs AI or a friend
• Classic Chess — traditional full-information chess, PvP or vs AI

MAKE IT YOURS
• 11 hand-crafted board themes with live previews
• 4 piece sets: Classic, Wooden, Dark Fantasy and Retro pixel art
• 4 fog effects: Mist, Void, Cloud and Parchment
• Smooth animations, haptic feedback and an optional match announcer

AFTER THE GAME
• Analysis mode — lift the fog and replay every move of the battle
• Move list and one-tap PGN export to study or share your games
• Live evaluation bar and move history in classic mode

FOG OF WAR RULES
• You see the squares your pieces occupy, defend or can move to
• Capture the enemy King to win — there is no checkmate in the dark
• Slide into a hidden enemy and your piece stops and captures it
• Run out of legal moves and you lose, so keep your options open

Localized into 70+ languages. Plays offline, no account needed.
