Clear the board, one capture at a time. Every piece has to go, and the only legal move is a capture. Take a knight and you become the knight. Take a bishop and you move like a bishop. Pick the wrong order and your piece is stranded with nothing left to take — so you read the position again and find the line that works. Real chess rules, one new idea. A knight still moves like a knight; a bishop still cuts the diagonal. What changes is the goal: no opponent, no clock, and nothing to lose. Just a position, and whether you can see the way through it. WHAT YOU GET • Over 6,000 hand-checked boards across 250 packs • 10 piece types — the six from chess, plus four that only exist here! • 5 board sets to unlock as you clear the campaign • Difficulty that climbs as you go, and eases when you need it • Five skills for when a position will not fall: hint, undo, shield, morph, hammer HOW IT PLAYS Boards start at 3x3 and open up as you go. Every pack is a handful of positions with one honest solution each — solvable on the bus, and worth a second look at home. Almost every pack is untimed: take the minute you need. A few carry a clock as a challenge, and you will see it before you start. PLAY HOW YOU LIKE No account needed — the whole game works without signing in. Sign in with Apple only if you want your progress to follow you to a new phone. Plays offline. No ads, anywhere, ever. ABOUT LIVES AND COINS A run costs a life, and lives refill on their own over time. Coins buy skills and refills, and are earned by playing — or bought in the shop if you would rather not wait. Everything purchasable can also be earned by playing.
