About

Features

You keep losing the same way. Chessholic finds out why. Connect your Chess.com or Lichess username. The King, a slightly tipsy kung-fu master, reads your games and finds your habits: the positions you reach again and again where you keep playing the same inferior move. Every finding is checked by Stockfish. FIX YOUR HABITS • See exactly where you leak: "Scotch, move 6. You play Nc3 31 of 38 times. Better: e5." • Drill each habit as a short puzzle line until it sticks, with spaced repetition that brings it back at the right time. • A habit is only cured when you play the right move in your real games. Chessholic checks your new games for you. LEARN OPENINGS THAT WORK AT YOUR LEVEL • 20+ openings, from the Italian, London and Vienna as White to the Caro-Kann, Scandinavian and Stafford Gambit as Black, with more added to the library. • Lines are built from what real club players actually play against them, with the King's commentary on every move. • Learn the traps (Blackburne Shilling, Elephant Trap) and how to punish common mistakes. TRAIN IN MINUTES A DAY • Pick 5, 10 or 20 minutes a day. • Learned lines come back for review so they stay in memory. • Streaks, stamps and celebrations when a line clicks. FREE: your habit report, one habit to drill, starter traps and the first 2 lines of every opening. CHESSHOLIC PRO: every habit, every line, automatic sync of new games and the King's explanations. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
