ChessHut: Offline Chess
AI, Puzzles & 2 Player Game
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
3,700+ puzzles that match your level, eight rivals with real personality, and a coach on every move. All offline.
Chess for everyone. No account, no ads, no internet needed.
ChessHut is a complete chess game that runs entirely on your device. Pick an opponent, choose a clock, and play. Every game, puzzle and rating stays private on your phone.
EIGHT OPPONENTS WITH CHARACTER
Face Pip the Hatchling (rated 400) through to Ember, the Hut Master (1900). Each one plays in its own style — attacking, defensive or unpredictable — and has plenty to say about your moves.
A COACH THAT WATCHES EVERY MOVE
After each of your moves you get instant feedback: Best move, Great, Good, Not the best, Mistake or Blunder, plus the move that would have been stronger. Finish a game to see your accuracy and a breakdown of how you played.
3,700+ PUZZLES THAT MATCH YOUR LEVEL
Rated puzzles from the Lichess open database, from beginner to master. Your puzzle rating adjusts as you solve, so the puzzles keep pace with you. Choose Easier, My level, Harder or Hardest, practise a single idea (forks, pins, sacrifices, discovered attacks, endgames, defence) or solve today's puzzle to build a streak.
