## What is Chess?

A serious AI chess board game. Become Emperor Napoleon and march on Waterloo. The AI runs fast and accurately inside your device, so it plays at full strength offline and out of coverage. 50 battles, from beginner to expert, are waiting for you.

You play chess. But this is an empire at war.
What unfolds on the 8×8 board is not a clash of pieces but a storm of strategy — a full-rules chess game that is also a historical simulation of Napoleon's campaigns. Great general, make your first move.

■ The Grand Campaign: play as Emperor Napoleon
Italy and Egypt, Austria and Prussia, Poland and Russia, The Spanish campaign, The Waterloo campaign.
5 chapters, 50 battles in all. Manage the passing days and witness the true ending within 80 days.

■ Serious AI training that finds your "just right" strength
50 levels of difficulty (Novice · Beginner · Intermediate · Advanced · Master · Peerless), from beginner to expert. A skill calibration in your first 3–7 games suggests the battle that fits you. The steps between neighbouring levels are small, so you climb without frustration. Castling, en passant, pawn promotion and the draw rules are all implemented to the standard. Beginners can relax: legal destinations of the selected piece are marked.

■ Playable out of coverage: a real offline chess AI
All of the AI's thinking happens inside your device. Positions are never sent to a server, so on the subway, in flight or out of coverage it never stalls, right to the last move. Waiting time is never network time.

■ A full set of tools to improve your chess
・Post-game review: right after the game, step the board back from move one and see for yourself where the balance shifted.
・Takebacks: against the AI only, up to 3 per game.
・AI commentary (needs a connection): after the game, a written summary of the key points (once per game). See which move was the turning point.
・The AI's inner voice (can be turned off): during the game, a short line shows what your opponent is thinking.
・Achievements that add up: win rate, an estimated rank (15 kyu to 9 dan), 25 achievements to unlock and more make your progress visible.

■ Take on the world in online chess
Automatic matching with opponents of a similar rating. There is no chat. Opponents and the leaderboard see the display name set in your profile (or an anonymous placeholder if not set), and you can report an inappropriate display name. Results are saved on the server.

■ Controls made for the phone
Portrait only, designed for one hand. The board never moves when you tap a square you cannot go to, so a slip never breaks the position. Sound effects, music and the AI's inner voice can each be set separately.

■ No account required
We do not collect your name, address, phone number or date of birth. An anonymous account is created automatically, and your data stays on the device.
・Free to play: every enemy general (battle) can be played, and the post-game commentary is included.
・Ads appear only between games.
・A one-time "Remove ads" purchase removes the ads and unlocks the scoring of your playing tendencies and the AI coach's advice.

※ Resetting the device or deleting the app cannot be undone: records and purchases are not restored, and there is no transfer between devices. AI commentary, online play and ads need a connection.
