Tiny Chess VIP

A far stronger opponent, and a coach who tells you why

  • Play a grandmaster-strength engine

    Elo 1320 to 3190 — pick the strength, nothing to unlock.

  • Ask why any mistake was a mistake

    What went wrong, what to play instead, and why.

  • Get better, steadily

    Every game names the mistake, so you improve rather than just win or lose.

Everything else stays free — all 25 friends, puzzles, and playing online.

A preview of the app: a chess board with a selected knight and its legal moves, a game-review bar rating moves from Best to Blunder, and a row of bot characters with Elo ratings and star scores.
