Easy Chess 2P vs NoFluff

We all chess players know that there is no better option than a real physical board, but when the need for a 2 player chess challenge with a physical person strikes in and there is nothing but a mobile device in reach, this is the app you want to have. I am just a beginner in the chess world, but something I personally hate from sharing a screen to play a two player chess game is the lack of 3D pieces. I have found 3 different approaches online for such problem: one of the players just sees the pieces upside down, the board flips each turn or the pieces are symmetrical. None of those solved my need to see my pieces normally during the other's turn. Since nowadays the mobile devices have a fair large screen, my simple solution has been to display 2 boards on the same screen, one with the pieces facing upside and the other facing downside. Obviously I could not resist from implementing the basic intelligence we all expect from a chess app: only allow legal moves, the possibility to show aids and threats, customizable aesthetics, different game modes, detecting any game outcome (check mate, stalemate, etc), undo/redo... There is the option to show a different level of aid for each individual player, to help beginner players like me to play against more advanced players. It is such a pasional project that I am very open to receive suggestions.

All the fun of a simple chess game, without all that annoying fluff. That's right, no ads, no fees, not even leader boards or online games. Not now, not ever. Enjoy! In all seriousness, a weekend fun project - a chess solver, turned into an interactive chess game for the mobile. The app currently supports 4 difficulty levels and a 2 player option if you wanna have fun with friends. Be ware, the opponent is quite strong, even on the easiest mode - I did not manage to beat it even once. With that said, I am not a chess professional myself either, only a developer who likes challenges. Ohh, the timer only stops once you won - or more possibly, lost your current game. So don't even think about moving the app to the background. I hope you will like it and will make your day just a little bit better. Enjoy!
