## What is Xiangqi?

Traditional Chinese Chess (Xiangqi) — a classic wooden board with hand-styled calligraphy pieces — with modes for playing solo or with a friend beside you.

BOSS TOWER
Climb an endless tower of AI bosses. Each stage is meaningfully stronger than the last, with badges, win streaks and hidden "Chess God" milestone bosses every 5 stages. How high can you go?

LAN MULTIPLAYER
Play head-to-head with a friend on the same Wi-Fi — just share a 4-digit room code or let the app auto-discover nearby rooms. In-game chat included. No server, no login.

2 PLAYERS, 1 DEVICE
Sit across from each other and share one device — the board flips automatically each turn.

CHESS PUZZLES (Cờ thế)
Sharpen your tactics with a library of classic Xiangqi puzzles, from easy to expert.

BLIND CHESS (Cờ Úp)
A fun variant with hidden, shuffled pieces and 3 AI difficulty levels — Easy, Medium, Hard.

FEATURES
• Powerful offline AI (minimax + alpha-beta search) — no internet needed
• Move hints with a clear green arrow showing a strong move
• Undo, request draw, resign; profile, EXP and win streaks
• Original sound effects for moves, captures, check and wins
• 3 languages: English, Vietnamese, 中文
• Optimized for both phone and tablet (iPad)

Free to play, with ads. Enjoy the timeless game of Xiangqi anywhere!
