Whether you want to sharpen your opening knowledge, test yourself against themed opponents, or simply play and review your decisions, Chessferatu is built to make improvement feel rewarding.

Love using this to help me learn openings. I also love that the off book moves the bots make are based off of real mistakes people make in those positions
