Chess:Arcade

An arcade cabinet where you learn chess — and then play it. Real chess, unchanged: against the computer, against friends, or alone.
LEARN CHESS BY PLAYING IT
The first time you start the game, it asks how well you already know chess and drops you in right where you belong. Complete beginners get eighteen lessons where no rule is simply explained — every rule is played.
THE JOURNEY
A map of 105 stops instead of a list of lessons. Two continents are open: eight opening regions, where each line is first shown, then tested, and finally put into practice; and the endgames, ranging from basic rook endings all the way to the Lucena position.
Beyond the final milestone waits THE ADVENTURE — a run through a branching route, played out instead of simply solved.
ARCADE
12,067 tactical positions. Each one has a move that decides it, and a time limit calculated from the position itself.
You have three crowns, and between rounds you choose from three tactical themes. The more accurately you play, the louder the arcade cabinet gets.
AGAINST THE COMPUTER AND FRIENDS
Eight opponents rated from 600 to 2000, whose weaknesses are built in rather than simply dialed down. Each level has its own budget of inaccuracies, mistakes, and blunders.
Play standard chess or Chess960 — against the machine, or against a friend you invite through the Steam Overlay.
AND MORE
Post-game analysis and PGN export for every match. Eighteen music tracks generated by the game itself. Pieces and boards to unlock, board effects that can be reduced or disabled in three levels, and full support for English and German.
