Application Description
Experience the thrill of never playing the same game of chess twice with ChessCraft, the ultimate chess sandbox! Engage with a sophisticated AI computer opponent or challenge your friends online. With ChessCraft, you can customize chess boards, rules, and pieces to your heart's content. Dive into adventure mode and explore one of 75 pre-built chess boards, or let your creativity soar by creating your own. ChessCraft isn’t just a game; it's the world's largest chess variant database, ensuring endless variety and fun.
Visit www.chesscraft.ca to start your journey into the world of chess like never before. Unlike other chess AI mobile games, ChessCraft stands out by allowing you to design wacky boards and unique pieces, and then instantly play against a competent computer opponent.
Unleash your imagination by creating new pieces using any combination of the 8 bishop or rook slides, along with a 7x7 grid of knight-like hops. You can even enhance or restrict the abilities of nearby pieces, adding a strategic depth to your game. Design new boards with customizable tiles up to 16x16, and set promotion rules for any piece, anywhere. Add special tile rules such as witch windows (teleporters) and sanctuaries to make your games truly unique. The AI leverages cutting-edge concepts from computer science and graph theory to understand and adapt to your custom creations, ensuring a challenging match every time.
Share your innovative boards with friends, who can then play against the AI as well. Each shared board gets its own unique web page, like this example: www.chesscraft.ca/design?id=shape-variant1.
ChessCraft is free to play, with no ads to interrupt your experience, except for occasional popups inviting you to become a ChessCraft Patron. As a patron, you'll enjoy an ad-free experience. If you're a teacher, student, or if financial constraints make the patronage challenging, simply send an email, and a special code will be provided to you.
Feel free to visit the website and send feedback or questions via email. If you enjoy the game, please take a moment to rate it!
