Experience the thrill of endless chess variations with ChessCraft, the ultimate chess sandbox featuring an AI computer opponent. Whether you're looking to play against friends online or challenge the computer, ChessCraft offers a dynamic platform to customize chess boards, rules, and pieces. Dive into adventure mode with one of 75 built-in chess boards, or unleash your creativity by designing your own. ChessCraft proudly hosts the world's largest database of chess variants, making it a must-visit for any chess enthusiast.
Explore ChessCraft at https://www.chesscraft.ca. Unlike other chess AI mobile games, ChessCraft stands out by allowing you to craft wildly unique boards and pieces, then immediately pit your creations against a sophisticated computer opponent. Design new pieces using any combination of the 8 bishop or rook slides, and a 7x7 grid of knight-like hops. Enhance or restrict the abilities of nearby pieces, and create boards with customizable tiles up to 16x16. Set promotion rules for any piece and introduce special tile rules like witch windows (teleporters) and sanctuaries. The AI uses advanced algorithms from computer science and graph theory to adapt and play against your innovative designs.
When you share your board, you create a unique web page for your creation, such as https://www.chesscraft.ca/design?id=shape-variant1, allowing your friends to play against the AI on your custom setup. ChessCraft is free and ad-free, with the occasional popup inviting you to become a ChessCraft Patron. Patrons enjoy uninterrupted play. If you're a teacher, student, or financially constrained, reach out via email for a special access code.
