Rating summary
About
Sharpen your chess with real tactics from real games.
Chess Puzzles gives you 1,711,830 positions taken from games that were actually played. Each one has a best move. Find it.
THE PATH
Short stages of puzzles at your level. Every puzzle moves your rating, every stage earns up to three stars, and every chapter ends with a boss. Eight leagues to climb, from Pawn to Grandmaster.
ENDLESS MODE
Puzzle after puzzle at your level: your rating goes up and down with every answer, and a flame grows as you chain first-try solutions. Ten flame stages, from a spark to an aurora.
ADVENTURE
Twelve illustrated lands, one tactic each: forks in the forest, pins on the bridge, sacrifices on the volcano. Ten stages per land, then a guardian to beat before you move on.
ARENA
• Daily puzzle: the same for everyone, gentle on Monday, hardest on Sunday. A widget puts today's position on your Home Screen and Lock Screen.
• Sprint: as many puzzles as you can in 3 or 5 minutes.
• Survival: three lives, and it gets harder.
Game Center leaderboards and 41 achievements.
TRAINING
• 73 themes: forks, pins, skewers, discovered attacks, back-rank mates, smothered mates, rook endgames…
• Your openings: the tactics that come out of 151 opening families.
• My Mistakes: every puzzle you miss comes back later, spaced out so it sticks.
WHEN YOU GET IT WRONG
The app plays the reply that punishes your move and tells you what it costs (a mate, a piece) before you try again.
STATISTICS
Rating curve, activity calendar, accuracy and time per theme, your best hours, difficulty breakdown, records. Everything is computed from your own puzzles, on your device.
MADE TO FEEL GOOD
Seven boards, six piece sets, sounds and haptics, drag or tap to move. Works offline. No account, no ads.
