CHESS HAS NEVER LOOKED LIKE THIS Chesshape turns the movements of the chess pieces into a calm, original logic puzzle. Every piece paints the squares it can reach: the rook floods a rank and a file, the bishop cuts the diagonals, the knight leaves its own L. Put the right pieces on the right squares, build the target pattern, and finish the puzzle in the fewest moves possible. MIX THE COLORS Paint red over yellow and make orange. Colors mix wherever two moves overlap, so the puzzle is choosing which moves cross, and where. New color combinations and more intricate patterns wait further in. EVERY PUZZLE HAS A PROVEN SOLUTION Every level has been checked to confirm that it has a valid solution under the game’s rules. WHAT IS IN THE GAME? * Over a thousand hand-built puzzles * Six chess pieces, each taught step by step * Strategic color-mixing mechanics * Eight tiers of difficulty, from the basics to Grandmaster * A new daily puzzle every day * Streaks, stars and progress rewards * The Hall of Legends, built from famous board problems * Calm play with no timers and no lives * Offline play and unlimited undo Stuck? A hint shows you the best next move. Replay a chapter without help to earn all three stars. Chesshape is free to play. An optional one-time Premium upgrade removes automatic ads and grants 60 bonus hints. Optional rewarded ads remain available. Hint packs are available too, if you want them.

ガラスの箱の中に、青いブロック。 正面から光を当てると、奥の壁に影が落ちます。 その影を、壁に描かれた「お題」の形にぴったりそろえるパズルです。 ■ 遊び方 ・横になぞると、箱を左右に回す ・縦になぞると、箱を奥・手前に倒す――重力の向きが変わって、ブロックが転がり落ちる ・2本指でくるっと、箱をひねる ・影がお題と重なったらクリア。最短手数なら星3つ ■ 間違えて回さない操作感 ・指を離すまで操作は確定しません。なぞっている間は箱が指に吸いつくように回り、「離すと 右に回す」と教えてくれます ・確定の位置を越えると、指先に軽い手ごたえ。戻せば取り消し ・斜めのあいまいな動きは無視。動いている最中のタッチも受け付けません ・それでも間違えたら「戻す」で1手ずつ元どおり ・ボタン操作にも対応 ■ 特徴 ・指を動かして覚える、動くお手本つきのチュートリアル ・全60レベル。すべて最短手数を計算済み ・手数には(ゆるめの)上限あり。当てずっぽうでは解けない、考えるパズル ・なぞっている間、「離すと影がどうなるか」を先に表示 ・迷ったら「次の一手」で最短ルートの一手を表示 ・もう揃わない形になったらすぐにお知らせ ・「次の一手」は各レベル3回まで無料。オフラインでも遊べます
