Play chess against the computer

Pawn promotion

Pick a colour and a level. You can take back moves and ask for hints, so practise at your own pace.

How to use it

  1. Pick a colour. White moves first. “Random” lets the computer decide.
  2. Pick a level. Start with 1–2 if you are learning. Level 5 is a serious opponent even for strong players.
  3. Play. Drag a piece, or tap it and then the target square. “Hint” shows a good move as an arrow.

Frequently asked questions

Which level should I choose?

If you just learned the rules, choose level 1. If you play at a club or online, start at 3 and move up.

Can I take back a move?

Yes. “Take back” undoes your move and the computer's reply.

Is the game saved?

Press “Copy PGN” under the board to get the game record, then review it in “Game review”.
