Chess is a clean, distraction-free chess game for your phone — play a friend across the table, or challenge a built-in computer opponent. No ads, no account, no internet connection required.
♟ TWO WAYS TO PLAY
• Two-Player — pass-and-play chess with a friend on one device.
• Vs. Computer — challenge an AI opponent at Easy, Medium, or Hard difficulty.
♟ THE FULL RULEBOOK, DONE RIGHT
Castling, en passant, pawn promotion (choose your piece), check, checkmate, stalemate, threefold repetition, the 50-move rule, and insufficient-material draws are all correctly detected — this plays like real chess, not a simplified version of it.
♟ NEVER LOSE A GAME
• Save any game mid-match and resume it later, exactly where you left off.
• Undo and redo any move.
• Full move history in standard chess notation (Nf3, O-O, exd5, e8=Q#…) — tap any past move to jump straight to that position.
• Import or export games as PGN, so you can share a great game or load one from anywhere.
♟ MAKE IT YOURS
• Board themes: Classic, Blue, and Green.
• Light and dark mode.
• Distinct sound effects and vibration feedback for moves, captures, and check.
• Adjustable chess clocks for casual or timed games.
♟ YOUR PRIVACY, RESPECTED
Chess works entirely offline. Games you save stay in a local database on your own device — nothing is uploaded, tracked, or shared. There are no ads, no analytics, and no third-party trackers of any kind.
Whether you're learning the game, playing a quick match with a friend, or sharpening your skills against the computer, Chess keeps things simple: open the app, and play.
Classic chess: play a friend or challenge the computer. No ads, no login.
