A full game of chess, whenever you have ten minutes.
Chess in the browser for casual players. Play the computer at three levels, share a screen with a friend, or send an invite link for a private online game. Games resume where you left them. Included in every Nubo plan, at one per-seat price for all apps.
- Three levelsEasy, Medium or Hard computer opponent.
- Online invitePrivate game by code or link, with resign and rematch.
- ClocksBullet, Blitz and Rapid with increment, or none.
- ResumesA game in progress survives a reload.
Every rule, including the odd ones.
Castling, en passant, promotion, stalemate, threefold repetition, the fifty-move rule and insufficient material are all handled.
Time controls that stay fair.
The clock starts with the first move. Running out of time loses, unless your opponent cannot possibly mate, which is a draw. Online, each side sends its own clock.
