Pocket Chess Plus

Pocket Chess Plus turns chess into quick, satisfying puzzles you can solve in 10 to 30 seconds. Find the checkmate, earn your stars, and move on to the next one.

BITE-SIZED BOARDS
The first chapters are played on small fragments of the board, so you can see the whole idea at a glance. As you improve, the fragments grow and you move on to the full 8×8 board.

1,020 REAL PUZZLES
Every position comes from a real game and has been checked by a solver. Levels rise in difficulty along a careful curve, from your very first mate in one to master-level combinations.

34 CHAPTERS OF TACTICS
Mate in 1, mate in 2 and mate in 3, back-rank mates, smothered mates, forks, pins, skewers, discovered attacks, double checks, deflection, attraction, quiet moves, clearance, X-rays and more.

EARN STARS
Solve cleanly for three stars. Stuck? A two-step hint shows which piece to move, then where it goes. Retry any level for free.

A GIFT EVERY DAY
Collect free Shards every day and spend them on hints.

DESIGNED TO RELAX
A calm, hand-crafted look inspired by raw clay and celadon glaze, with clear classic pieces that are easy to read on any screen.

PLAYS FULLY OFFLINE
No account and no sign-in. Your progress is saved on your device.

Full chess rules are supported: castling, en passant, double pawn moves and promotion to any piece.
