Why you'll love it

♟️

An opponent for every level

Six AI difficulty levels, from your very first game to grandmaster strength — powered by the legendary Stockfish engine, running right on your phone. Stuck? Ask for a hint.

⏱️

Real chess clocks

Every game — AI and online — runs with a 15-minute per-side clock, just like a real match. Both players' remaining time is shown live. Run out and you lose on time.

Your privacy, your call

Knightfall is built to respect you:

Guest mode — play everything without creating an account.
Public profiles are opt-in — you only appear on the leaderboard and this website if you flip the switch yourself.

The AI and coach run on your phone — your games against the computer never leave your device.
Delete everything — one tap in Settings removes your account and all of your data.
