Chess Legends vs Chess Acuity

Chess Legends is a dark-fantasy chess game built for focused play. No accounts, no ads, no distractions. Just the board, your opponent, and a roster of legends to unlock. Play solo across four difficulty tiers: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Legend. Prefer playing with a friend? Use two-player mode and pass the device back and forth. UNLOCK LEGENDARY AVATARS Win games, earn points, and unlock 10 legendary avatars, from Aldren to Asterion. Each champion has unique artwork, lore, and a place in the dark-fantasy world of Chess Legends. Track your wins, build your collection, and chase the next unlock. CUSTOMIZE THE BOARD Choose from four board themes that change the look of the board and pieces. Each theme keeps the same moody, cinematic style while giving your game a different visual tone. PLAY ANYWHERE Chess Legends works fully offline. There are no ads, no accounts, and no sign-up. Your progress is saved only on your device. No personal data is collected, and nothing is sent anywhere. Chess Legends is built by an independent developer who loves the game.

Chess Acuity turns any chess position into insight — entirely on your device. Set up a position and Stockfish 17, running locally on your iPhone, shows you the best moves and lines. No account, no ads, no analytics, no internet connection required. The app is free and open source. FOUR WAYS IN • From a photo — share a screenshot from any chess app or website, or pick one from your photo library. A built-in recognizer reads the board on-device and sets up the position. • From a game — paste a PGN, step through the moves, and analyse any position along the way. • By hand — set up the board in a clean, fast editor. • By FEN — paste a position directly. ANALYSIS • Powered by the Stockfish 17 chess engine, running natively on your device. • Multiple lines (MultiPV) with evaluations, searched by depth or thinking time. • Step through any line move by move on the board. • Plain-language explanation of the engine's choice. PLAY • Play a full game against Stockfish at eight strength levels. • Take a hint when you're stuck, then hand the finished game straight to the analyser. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything — board recognition, engine analysis, move explanations — runs on your device. The app makes no network requests and collects no data. Screenshots you import are processed locally and never uploaded. OPEN SOURCE Chess Acuity is free software under the GNU GPLv3. The complete source code is available at github.com/alexostar/chess-acuity-app. FAIR PLAY Chess Acuity is made for study and review. Please don't use it for assistance during live or rated games — that breaks the fair-play rules of every chess site and spoils the game for everyone.
