Review momentum
20/100
faster than 0% of Games apps
Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.
About Chess Academy - Play & Learn
Finally, a chess app designed for learning, not monetization. No ads interrupting your games. No paywalls blocking lessons. No subscriptions. Just pure chess education for one simple price.
WHY CHESS ACADEMY?
Most chess apps are built for experienced players or cluttered with ads. Chess Academy was built from the ground up to teach chess properly, with clear explanations and interactive examples that actually make sense.
STRUCTURED LEARNING PATH
Start with how each piece moves, then progress through special rules like castling and en passant. Learn why openings are named after cities and players. Understand tactical patterns like forks, pins, and the famous Greek Gift sacrifice. Each lesson includes interactive boards and quizzes to cement your understanding.
PUZZLES THAT BUILD REAL SKILLS
Three difficulty levels with carefully curated positions. Each puzzle teaches a specific pattern you'll recognize in your own games. Hints when you're stuck. Stats to track which tactics need more work.
PLAY AND IMPROVE
Face an AI opponent adjustable from 400 to 1600 rating. Choose your time control or play untimed while learning. Track your ELO rating as you improve. Compete in match play or mini tournaments when you're ready.
EVERYTHING INCLUDED
- 20+ interactive lessons from beginner to advanced
- Famous games from chess history with commentary
- Dozens of tactical puzzles
- Multiple time controls: Bullet, Blitz, Rapid
- Game Center achievements and leaderboards
