## What is Simplay Chess?

Simplay Chess — open, and you're playing. Get better as you go.

No account. No levels. No tutorial. Simplay strips chess back to what it actually is: you open the app, and a game is already waiting. The whole app stays clean — a board, and nothing you didn't ask for.

AN OPPONENT THAT READS YOU
You never pick a difficulty. The AI reads your level and settles at just the right strength — as you get stronger, so does it, like a sparring partner who's always an even match. No more bouncing between "too easy" and "no chance." Just keep playing.

AFTER EVERY GAME, SEE WHAT YOU MISSED
When a game ends, Simplay builds a small deck of review cards for the moments that mattered. Each card:
• Names the tactic — fork, pin, skewer, discovered attack, overloading, back-rank mate, and more
• Draws the key move on the board with color-coded arrows: the move you played, a stronger alternative, and your opponent's reply
• Explains the idea in plain words — not a cold engine score
You see exactly where it slipped, and play it better next time. That's chess you understand as you go.

SIX HANDCRAFTED THEMES
From museum gold to Bauhaus red to deep midnight green — pick a board that feels like yours.

Sit down. Play. See what you missed. Get better.
