About Trap Chess™

Challenge friends instantly with a 6-character play code. Trap Chess™ blends quick mobile matches with the tension of hidden landmines, so every game feels fresh whether you play White, Black, or spectate. • Start matches in seconds with shareable play codes. • Adjust how many hidden landmines each side starts with; opponent mine locations stay secret during play and only reveal when the game ends. • Get turn and game-end push notifications so you never miss a decisive move. • Save and resume locally so your match survives interruptions. • Review finished games to analyze moves, traps, and outcomes and sharpen your strategy.

What’s new

Version 1.1.0 · Updated October 9, 2026

Version 1.1 improves reliability and makes every move and landmine detonation easier to follow. Play-code creation and joining are more dependable, recent moves now have clearer square highlighting, and landmine detonations feature a larger color-matched ripple. A new Landmine Draw ending clearly explains when a detonation leaves insufficient material to checkmate. Branding and store media have also been refreshed.
