Description
Beginner or advanced, become a chess master, without ever being disturbed by ads.
Do you want to master the most prestigious, the classiest game ever, while having fun?
It's EASY! For starters, there are no ads to distract you. There's no account to create, and you don't even need to be connected to the Internet.
How does it work? It's really simple: you just play! The coach shows you the moves a Grandmaster would pick. Not just one move, but THE 4 BEST MOVES.
Sounds too simple? But think about it... How did you learn to speak as a child? Did you take grammar and spelling lessons? Of course not. You listened to the adults talk and then you went for it! Because that's how you learn!
This app allows you to do just that, AND IT WORKS!
In just 2 minutes, you start learning effortlessly. You'll immediately enjoy playing, and after a few games you'll notice that the right moves come naturally to you, as if they were self-evident.
Gradually, you deactivate the suggestions and play by yourself. At the end of each game, the coach shows you the good and bad moves you've made. You can better understand what happened, and you can even try out other moves to improve.
If this sounds unbelievable, you should read the user reviews for our app. It has one of the highest satisfaction ratings on the App Store, in all countries.
What's more, it's the only chess app that analyzes your games and shows you how to improve, and it's also one of the MOST COMPLETE apps for players of all levels.

New for 2024:
- We have added new visual themes: "Green felt (dark)", "Dark" and "Dark wood".
- New chess set: "Lucena".

- 100 Magnus Carlsen games are now available (previously 10).
- You can now reset your score, your grade, and your statistics. This operation can be undone if you change your mind.
