Shax - Board Game

Shax is the classic strategy game of Somalia: two players, 24 points, 12 stones each. Place your stones, form a jare – three in a row – and capture your opponent's stones. Simple to learn, endlessly deep. • PLAY LOCALLY – Play a friend on the same device, or challenge the built-in AI at four levels: Easy, Normal, Hard and Expert. The stronger levels think ahead and vary their play, so no two games feel the same. • SHAX GROUP – A new way to play for 3, 4 or 5 players on one device: the familiar Shax rings shaped as a star with a centre point. Fill any seat with a friend or an AI at its own level. • ONLINE WITH GAME CENTER – Turn-based matches with friends or random opponents. Games feel live when you are both in the app and wait for you when you are not. • DAILY PUZZLE – A fresh, verified puzzle every day. Solve it in as few moves as possible, keep your streak alive and share a spoiler-free result. • LEADERBOARDS & ACHIEVEMENTS – Climb the Game Center leaderboards and unlock achievements. • LEARN IN MINUTES – Interactive lessons teach the board, placement, jare and the movement phase. • BEAUTIFUL & CALM – A dusk-lit desert with drifting sand, handcrafted stones, haptics and smooth animations. Supports VoiceOver, Dynamic Type and Reduce Motion. • PRIVATE – No ads, no in-app purchases, no tracking. No account needed. Available in English, Swedish, Somali and Arabic.
