A colourful reimagining of traditional Chess, this is the mobile version of the tabletop game Colour Chess, awarded ‘Game of the Year’ in 2019 by the Mind Sports Olympiad and also Mensa-nominated.
It focuses on skill and creativity rather than studying set openings, as you use the colours to force and trap your opponent with a game that is different every time, yet retains the feel and logic of Chess positioning.

“This level of thinking and strategy adds a huge dose of challenge and planning into the average chess game. You can quickly start manipulating your opponent.” - Big Boss Battle
“A fun and unusual take on Chess which gets your brain working creatively, adding a whole new dimension and devilish restrictions” - Amanda Ross, Casual Chess Café London

The game itself is great, and I am grateful that this app has been done, so we can enjoy this chess variant. As an early release it is good, but there is a lot to improve. The main issue for me: it was not very intuitive for me knowing how to remove a finished game from the slots available. After three games, all my slots were full, I couldn't create new games, and took me half an hour (!) realising that I should tap on "main menu" when the game is finished instead of tapping the back button.

Hello DogEared. The game and new A.I. works fine on Android 5+, but on Android 4.4, the app stops. Please fix it. Thanks.
