Cresus Casino
A calm, elegant collection of CHESS MATE-IN-N puzzles on a classic marble board. Each position is set up with White to move - your job is to find the forcing line and deliver checkmate. Simple to pick up, satisfying to crack: a few sharp minutes whenever you have them.
HOW IT PLAYS
Tap one of your white pieces and its legal squares light up. Tap a highlighted square to move there. After every move you make, the Black king plays its toughest defence automatically, so your line has to work against every reply. Win the instant Black is in check with no legal escape. Watch for stalemate - a king with no move but no check is only a draw, not a mate.
ALWAYS SOLVABLE, ALWAYS FAIR
Every position is checked by the game's own mate-solver, so a forced checkmate always exists. No unfair traps by design - just clean, honest chess.
TEN PUZZLES, GROWING CHALLENGE
Ten hand-built positions that rise from mate in one to mate in two and three. Later puzzles ask you to picture the whole net a few moves ahead before you commit.
STARS, COINS AND A SHOP
Solve in the fewest moves, without hints, and under par time for up to three stars, and earn coins on every puzzle. Spend them in the shop and claim a small daily gift. Everything is earned in-game - no pay-to-win.
MADE TO RELAX
Warm ivory and walnut board, real piece glyphs and no ticking pressure - tidy, one-thumb chess puzzles.
