Chess

Chess might look like a quiet game, a simple board, some wooden pieces, maybe a friend or a computer opponent sitting across from you. But make no mistake: every move is a calculated strike, every tactic a bid for total domination. This isn’t checkers. This is the base of all strategy games, and it's been kicking logic into gear for centuries.
With interactive chess lessons, a library of over 350,000 puzzles, and powerful AI opponents that scale to your skill level, this site doesn’t just teach you the rules of chess, it forces you to think in diagonals, horizontals, and sacrifice-fueled gambits. Whether you're practicing against the computer, challenging a friend in real time, or climbing ranked leaderboards, every piece you move is one step closer to checkmate, or stalemate, if your opponent’s just that slippery.
From Puzzle Rush to blindfold mode, it’s not just chess. It’s dozens of game types wrapped in clean design, smart coaching, and just enough flair to make learning addictive. Whether it's your first move or your thousandth match, this is the battlefield. The king is vulnerable. Plan accordingly.
