Full description
Simple Chess is a clean, complete chess app you can play anywhere - no internet needed, no ads, no sign-up. Just chess. Beat the computer, sharpen your tactics on thousands of puzzles, learn with interactive lessons, and the part most free apps skip - review every game move by move to see exactly where it turned. PLAY - Take on the computer at five levels, from Beginner to Expert. - NEW to chess? Beginner actually plays like a beginner - it makes real mistakes you can punish, instead of a "beginner" that never slips. - Your progress is backed up to your Google account, so your rating, streaks, history and trophies survive a reinstall or a new phone. No sign-up, no password. - Pass & Play two-player chess on one device. - Full FIDE rules: castling, en passant, promotion, stalemate, the 50-move rule, threefold repetition — all handled correctly. REVIEW YOUR GAMES - Replay any finished game move by move. - Each move is graded Best, Good, Inaccuracy, Mistake, or Blunder, with an evaluation bar - so you learn from your own play, not just lose and move on. SOLVE PUZZLES - 3,000+ hand-picked tactics puzzles across 8 themes, with 500+ in every single theme: Forks, Pins, Skewers, Back-rank Mates, Smothered Mates, Discovered Attacks, Sacrifices, and Promotions. - A fresh Daily Puzzle every day, plus a calendar to revisit past days. - Puzzles adapt to your rating, so they stay challenging as you improve. LEARN - 16 interactive lessons, from how the pieces move to forks, pins, skewers, back-rank and smothered mates, endgames, and opening principles. Play the moves yourself as you learn. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS - An ELO rating that rises and falls with your results. - A daily-puzzle streak and a play streak to keep you coming back. - Earn trophies for milestones: your first win, win streaks, puzzle and daily-streak goals, finishing the lessons, and climbing the ranks. - Match history of your recent games. - An optional daily reminder so you never miss your puzzle. WHY SIMPLE CHESS - 100% free. No ads. No in-app purchases. - Plays completely offline - no connection needed. - No login, no password, no sign-up ever. Cloud backup is optional and silent, using the Google account already on your phone. - A lightweight, distraction-free design that loads instantly. Whether you're learning your first checkmate or grinding your rating higher, Simple Chess gives you everything to play, practice, and improve all in one clean, free app.

What's new

Bug Fixed: after updating to v2.12, the menu could offer to resume a game you had never played — and tapping it just started a new one. Your real saved games are unaffected. A game you actually played still resumes exactly as before.
