App Description
Create strange and wild chess setups with a simple swipe.
Break out of normal chess and play from positions that never appear in standard games.
With just a swipe, you can create strange and wild setups in seconds.
Swipe to mix your side and the CPU’s
The board is split into two halves:
- Swipe the top half to change the CPU’s starting setup
- Swipe the bottom half to change your own
- Combine them freely to create unfair, wild, or hilarious matchups
**Chess960 mode included**
You can also play Chess960, the official random-start chess variant loved worldwide.
15 presets to mix and match
You can mix and match 15 preset setups by swiping the CPU side and your side independently.
01: Even Match
02: Great Army
03: Harem (A lot of Queens)
04: Horse Owner
05: Iron Wall
06: Spy
07: Stand-by
08: Shogi-like
09: Badger-L
10: Badger-R
11: Castling (Ready-to-castle setup)
12: The Emperor (King exposed on the front line)
13: Camp
14: Pawn Road (Pawns forming a straight path)
15: Normal placement
Each setup can be combined freely, creating countless wild starting positions.
Keep the CPU normal and turn only your side into a pawn wall.
Or give yourself a queen swarm.
Or flip it. Make the CPU terrifying while you struggle to survive.
Just a few swipes create positions you’d never see in real chess.
