♟️ Play Chess Offline & Online: Play completely offline against smart AI engine bots, pass-and-play locally on a single board with a friend, or connect directly to Lichess and FICS (Free Internet Chess Server) for competitive online multiplayer matches against real players worldwide.

🤖 Engine vs Engine Battles: Spectate live high-level AI matches by putting two chess engines against each other in real-time to study master openings, complex tactics, and endgame mastery.

⏱️ Built-in Chess Timer & Clock: Use the fully customizable digital chess clock for physical board games or virtual play, featuring support for Bullet, Blitz, Rapid, and Fischer time increments.

🧩 Chess Puzzles: Sharpen your tactical vision by solving hundreds of chess puzzles. Easily import your own custom puzzle sets in PGN or FEN formats to practice specific combinations, mate-in-X patterns, and tactical drills.

🎯 Dedicated Practice Mode: Train your positional understanding and master specific game phases in a dedicated practice environment. Set up custom drills, import specialized training sets, and practice complex endgames against the engine until perfection.

📂 PGN Support & Move Notation: Load, save, and export chess games in standard PGN format with full Algebraic notation support, while the app automatically identifies opening names and ECO codes as you play.
