EyeGambit

Blindfold chess trainer

Free · Designed for iPad

If you ever wanted to play chess without looking at the board, or just improve your visualisation skills, but you don't know how to start, then EyeGambit is the App for you. It currently has 6 tools to help you train:  Square Recognition - Get to know the board better and instantly recognise the square and what color it has. Move Recognition - Identify the moves you hear or see instantly. Piece Movement - Train the movement of each piece individually, both by moving the piece to a target square or answering questions about its position. Lichess puzzles - Doing puzzles but with the added difficulty of EyeGambit to train your visualisation skills on top of your tactical skills. No registration or log-in to Lichess is required for this functionality (The option to log-in will be added when other functionality of Lichess is integrated that does require it) Play Local Game - The ultimate challenge is to actually play a game against a friend on your phone or a bot. You can still peak at the board when needed, but with time you will be able to do more moves without looking. Apart from the training, there is also a campaign to follow a progression to learn the skills (currently only for square recognition but more campaigns will follow) More features to come!

- Brand new Memory game: Look at a position with as many pieces/pawns as you want and try to replicate it, or look at a list of moves and then replicate the final position. - Local Games: Now you can not only play a bot but play another person on the same phone. You can have the screen rotate automatically to in front of each other. - Save game: For the local games, both against a friend or a bot, you can save at any moment the game and continue later. -Text to speech for the moves: You can listen to the moves while you play instead of reading them from the movebook, by setting the new audio settings to autoplay.
