Solitaire Chess is a single-player siege puzzle played on a hexagonal honeycomb board. Pick your side and outwit a sharp AI ā every move is a plan. [How it plays] ā§ 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. ā§ A real AI opponent, powered by Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), with Relaxed and Standard strengths ā it never plays soft. ā§ Adjustable board size: radius 10ā20 ā the larger the board, the deeper the play. ā§ A rule with depth: the Defender can leap diagonally across a complete hexagon. ā§ Multiple board themes you can switch instantly, mid-game. ā§ Touch-mode toggle: "Place" and "Move board" are separate, so panning and zooming never drops a stone by accident. ā§ Stats: win rate and match history at a glance. [Who it's for] ā§ Fans of abstract strategy ā chess, Go, and tactics games ā§ Anyone who wants to sharpen logic and spatial thinking in a single match ā§ A quick brain workout for your commute or lunch break [Privacy & offline] ā§ Fully offline ā no account, no network required ā§ No ads, no tracking, no personal data collected ā§ All records stay on your device only ā§ 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 ā no repurchase needed. Set your siege on the honeycomb
