## What is Solitaire?

Solitaire Chess is a single-player siege puzzle played on a hexagonal honeycomb board. Pick your side and outwit a sharp AI — every move is a plan.

[How it plays]
‧ Two sides, two strategies: as the Attacker, break out from the center and thread along the honeycomb paths to land on any red goal node on the rim; as the Defender, wall the attacker in before it can escape.
‧ A real AI opponent, powered by Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), with Relaxed and Standard strengths — it never plays soft.
‧ Adjustable board size: radius 10–20 — the larger the board, the deeper the play.
‧ A rule with depth: the Defender can leap diagonally across a complete hexagon.
‧ Multiple board themes you can switch instantly, mid-game.
‧ Touch-mode toggle: "Place" and "Move board" are separate, so panning and zooming never drops a stone by accident.
‧ Stats: win rate and match history at a glance.

[Who it's for]
‧ Fans of abstract strategy — chess, Go, and tactics games
‧ Anyone who wants to sharpen logic and spatial thinking in a single match
‧ A quick brain workout for your commute or lunch break

[Privacy & offline]
‧ Fully offline — no account, no network required
‧ No ads, no tracking, no personal data collected
‧ All records stay on your device only
‧ Independently built by Intoxicated Child Studio

[Free to play, Pro to unlock]
The game is free to play. A one-time Pro unlock (non-consumable, yours forever) opens up larger boards, the Standard AI, full stats history, and every theme. Customers who bought the earlier paid version are granted Pro automatically — no repurchase needed.
