About Chess against the computer for free

Chess against the computer for free brings one of the world's oldest strategy games — over one and a half thousand years old — to your smartphone, tablet, or computer. Despite everything that has emerged around it, from the Internet to social networks, chess has never lost its following, and this version makes it easy to see why.

The game covers four distinct ways to play: online matches against other players, computer opponents at different levels of difficulty, local games with a friend on the same device, and a large collection of chess problems to solve. Whether you want a competitive match or a quiet puzzle session, there is something here for every kind of chess player.

In one scene, a red square appears beneath the white king piece. Several scenes show two dark green squares marking the start and end positions of the most recent move on the board.
