## What is Live Match?

Play live Chess matches, plus Gomoku, Chinese Checkers, Reversi and Jungle Chess. All five games offer quick human matchmaking with a 15-minute clock per side. Create a friend room and share its code. Wait times depend on who is online.

FIVE GAMES
• Chess: Play standard chess with castling, en passant, checkmate and stalemate.
• Gomoku: Connect five or more on a 15×15 board.
• Chinese Checkers: Play with 2, 3, 4 or 6 players. Hop across the board and reach the opposite camp first.
• Reversi: Turn pieces in eight directions and control the corners.
• Animal Chess: Use animal ranks, rivers and traps to reach your opponent’s den.

PLAY YOUR WAY
No Apple sign-in is needed to start. Choose from four AI levels, pass and play on one device, or try 30 puzzles for each game. Rules and interactive tutorials are included.

ONLINE MATCHES AND FRIEND ROOMS
All five games offer quick human matchmaking with a 15-minute clock per side. Each game has its own online rating. Create a private room and share its code with friends. Friend games and AI practice do not affect online ratings. Wait times depend on who is online.

SAVE AND REPLAY
Save completed games and replay moves one by one. Online game records can sync to the cloud.

Available on iPhone and iPad. Choose English, Traditional Chinese or Simplified Chinese, switch board themes, and turn piece sounds on or off. AI games, pass and play, and local records work offline. Matchmaking, friend rooms, leaderboards and cloud records need an internet connection.

Rules note: Gomoku uses a casual five-in-a-row ruleset. Chinese Checkers includes adjacent hops and an anti-block camp-swap variant. Pawns promote automatically to queens in Chess. See the in-app rules for details.
