Truce: Chess Puzzle

Place every piece. Nobody gets attacked. Then take on real players online.

Truce is a chess logic puzzle game with 1,200 calm levels and quick online duels. You don't need to be good at chess: if you know how the pieces move, you already know how to play.

CHESS PUZZLES WITH ONE SIMPLE RULE
Each level gives you a tray of queens, rooks, bishops, knights and kings. Put every piece on the board so that no piece stands on a square another one attacks.
• Drag a piece onto the board. While you hold it, dots show every square it attacks, and red lines warn you of a fight before you let go.
• Tap any piece to see its danger zone.
• Walls block queens, rooks and bishops. Knights jump right over them.
• Some pieces are fixed in place. Work around them.

1,200 LEVELS, FROM EASY TO MASTER
• Five stages: Easy, Medium, Hard, Expert and Master.
• Boards grow from cozy 4×4 to tricky 8×8.
• Every level is checked by a solver: it always has a solution, and the harder stages have exactly one.
• A new daily puzzle every day, on a board shaped like a diamond, a cross or a ring.

PLAY OFFLINE, AT YOUR OWN PACE
• Puzzles have no timer. Think as long as you like, with or without internet.
• Undo, clear the board, or mark empty squares with an × as notes.
• Stuck? A hint shows exactly one next step.

ONLINE CHESS DUELS
• A 1v1 strategy game on a chess board. Both players start with an empty board and the same tray of pieces.

• Quick match pairs you with a player near your rating. Nobody around? Play a bot instead.
• Challenge a friend with a six-letter invite code, then play a rematch.
