About
Tabletop Chess AR puts a real-looking chess set on your own table through the camera. Walk around it, lean in and play. No table nearby? Play on a polished wooden table in 3D instead.
No ads, no tracking, nothing to sign up for.
A REAL BOARD ON ANY TABLE
• Place the board on a desk, a kitchen table or the floor, and it stays where you put it.
• Reach over the board and move pieces with your hand: pinch a piece with your thumb and index finger and hold to pick it up.
• Your hands appear in front of the pieces, on devices that support it.
• Or play on the 3D table: orbit the board, zoom in, and let it turn toward whoever moves next.
FOUR WAYS TO PLAY
• Computer: eight levels, from Beginner to Master. The lower levels make human-like mistakes.
• Pass & Play: two players sharing one iPhone or iPad.
• Nearby Friend: two devices in the same room see the same board on the same table. Pair with a 4-digit code; the connection is encrypted.
• Online: play a random opponent or invite a friend through Game Center.
LEARN AS YOU PLAY
• Ask for a hint when you are stuck.
• Take back a move, offer a draw or ask for a rematch.
• See every legal move and the last move played.
THE FULL GAME
• Every rule: castling, en passant, promotion, and draws by stalemate, repetition, the fifty-move rule and insufficient material.
• Chess clocks from 1-minute bullet to 30-minute classical, with increments.
• Four hand-crafted sets: Marble, Walnut, Tournament, and Obsidian & Gold.
• Your history, with wins and losses against each level, and every game exportable as PGN.
• Games are saved as you play, so you can pick up where you left off.
• Sound effects and haptics, under a Liquid Glass interface designed for iOS 26.
