Lumin Chess
Quiet sliding-pair puzzles
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Slide black and white stones in pairs until every color lands home. Ten hand-tuned boards, a built-in tutorial, and an optional global leaderboard. No ads, no accounts.
Lumin Chess is a quiet, minimalist sliding-pair puzzle.
Move black and white stones into their places by sliding them two at a time. Each board asks you to swap the colors — every black ends where the whites began, every white where the blacks were — in as few moves as you can.
HOW IT PLAYS
• Pieces always move in pairs. Pick two adjacent stones and slide them one cell together.
• Two-finger slide: a finger on each stone, then swipe up, down, left, or right.
• One-finger swipe: drag across both stones and one cell beyond — that cell sets the direction.
• Goal markers quietly show which color belongs in each cell. They fade as you place pieces correctly.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• Ten hand-tuned levels, sorted from gentle to genuinely hard.
• A built-in tutorial that teaches pair movement on your first run.
• Par counts and a live timer so you can chase the cleanest, fastest solve.
• An optional global leaderboard — submit a name and emoji to post your best time per level, or skip it entirely.
• A calm cream-and-charcoal design with smooth piece-slide animations and gentle haptics.
PLAYS YOUR WAY
• The whole game works offline. The leaderboard is the only part that uses the internet, and it's entirely optional.
• No ads. No accounts. No sign-up. No third-party tracking or analytics.
• Light install, easy on the eyes, made for short focused sessions.
If you like quiet single-player puzzles where the rules are simple but the moves take thought, Lumin Chess will feel right at home.
