HOW TO PLAY
Tap a piece, then tap its destination. No dragging. New Game sets who you play and the opponent strength from Beginner through Maximum. Plus and minus step through eight uncalibrated target ranges. Those numbers are not FIDE or Chess.com ratings. Estimated playing strength is device dependent. LEGAL MOVE HINTS in Menu can hide destination discs and capture rings; the selected piece frame and legal-move enforcement stay the same. Undo takes back your last move and the computer reply. Redraw flashes the page if the board looks ghosted; it does not start a new game. Resign asks for confirmation. PLAY ON LICHESS connects to real opponents on Lichess. The local engine does not run during online games.
