How to play
- White (gold pieces) moves first; Black (cyan pieces) follows. Tap a piece and then a highlighted legal destination. Labels name each piece and square.
- Rooks move straight, bishops diagonally, queens both, and knights in an L shape. Kings move one square. Pawns advance toward the opposite end and capture diagonally.
- Protect your king: moves that leave it in check are blocked. Checkmate wins; stalemate is a draw.
- Castling moves king and rook together when legal; select the king and its two-square destination. En passant and your choice of pawn promotion are supported.
- This casual game automatically draws on threefold repetition, the fifty-move rule, or insufficient material. Tournament claim procedures, clocks and online opponents are not included.
Use Tab and Enter or Space to select squares. Undo and board flipping are for practice. State stays in this tab; no account, XP or rewards.
Practice strategy and patience. All Hope, No Hype.
