Lantern Chess

The lanterns are lit and the board is set on a quiet café terrace. Play a full game of chess with glassy pieces that glide across walnut and ivory squares, and knights that hop. Every rule is in: castling, en passant, promotion, check, checkmate and all the draws.

Take on the computer at Easy, Medium or Hard, and win in fewer moves for a bigger score. Or tap Play with a friend, send the link, and play each other move by move from any phone or computer.

Tap a piece to see where it can go, then tap a highlighted square to move. Checkmate the other king to win: put it in check so it has no way out.
