## What is ChesSwap?

Every swap is a chess move! The knight jumps in an L, the bishop slides diagonally, the rook goes straight. Move pieces with chess moves, line up 3 of a kind, break the obstacles.

No chess knowledge needed — the game teaches you how every piece moves, step by step. Already play chess? You'll spot moves faster than anyone.

GAME MODES

• Normal — 100 levels with star challenges and jokers. Every level a fresh puzzle!
• Master Puzzles — 50 handcrafted levels, each with exactly ONE correct solution. No rest until you find it.
• Zeitnot — the clock is ticking and one mistake ends it. How fast can you think?
• Daily Challenge — the same board for everyone, one attempt per day. Finish in the fewest moves and top the day.
• Competitive — 60-second duels against real players: you both get the same boards, most solved wins. Earn Elo and climb the leaderboard.

SPECIAL MOVES

Swap two pieces of the same kind → a SPECIAL BLAST in that piece's movement pattern! The rook sweeps the whole row, the bishop rakes the diagonals, the knight strikes its L-targets. Line up 5 to create a King — bring two Kings together for MATCHMATE and finish the level instantly!

ALSO

• Find your friends and challenge them to a match
• Daily and weekly missions, level-up system, dozens of avatars
• English and Turkish

Completely free — no purchases, no ads. Playable offline too (except online modes).

Designed by a professional chess player.
