ANALYZE WITHOUT PENALTIES Not sure about a move? Turn on Analysis Mode to move pieces freely, explore variations, and search for the solution without affecting your score. When you exit Analysis Mode, your experimental moves are discarded and the puzzle returns to its previous position.

GET HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT Use a hint to reveal the next correct move in the solution. Hints and wrong moves may lower your star rating for that attempt, while solving cleanly earns more stars.

PLAY TOGETHER Board Mode turns your device into a free chessboard. Play both sides yourself or enjoy pass-and-play chess with another person on the same device. There is no computer opponent—you control the game.

Tap a piece to see its legal moves, study the position, and find the best continuation. Revisit completed puzzles, retry them to earn more stars, or continue to the next challenge.

Whether you are learning tactical patterns or looking for difficult positions to calculate, ChessMate Puzzles lets you enjoy chess at your own pace—anytime and anywhere.
