Shogiful Learn & Analyze Shogi

Most shogi apps let you play. Shogiful makes you stronger.

It is a personal shogi coach that lives on your iPhone and iPad. Play a game and a real shogi engine reviews every move with you. It shows where the game turned, explains why in plain language, and builds tomorrow's training around the mistakes you actually make.

OPPONENTS WITH A PERSONALITY
40 AI opponents, from patient first-game partners to masters. One lives for the attack, another builds a fortress and waits, a third wins everything with drops. Beat one and the next is waiting. Stuck mid-game? The in-game Coach can show you the best move and what each move is worth.

FIND OUT WHY YOU LOST
After every game, Shogiful walks you through it. Each move is graded from best to blunder, and each mistake comes with the better move and the idea behind it, written like a shogi teacher, not an engine printout. Over time it spots the mistakes you keep repeating, and your training starts targeting exactly those.

EVERY ANSWER COMES WITH A REASON
Tap "Why this move?" on any puzzle and Shogiful tells you what the move really does: the escape square it takes away, the piece that seals the mate, the sacrifice that tears the castle open. Found a different mate than the book? If it truly mates, it counts.

A WHOLE DOJO IN YOUR POCKET
Your Daily Plan turns your own games into a few focused minutes a day, and spaced repetition brings each lesson back right before you would forget it. When you want more:
