Play Chess Against the Computer Online

Play a free game of chess against the computer, with no sign-up needed. Pick from 20 AI levels: the lowest levels suit beginners making their first moves, while the top levels give club players a serious test. The engine is Stockfish, running entirely in your browser, so moves are calculated on your own device and the game responds instantly.

Play as White or Black, take the computer on at your own pace, and export any finished game as PGN to study later. When you are ready to test your skills further, try our chess tactics puzzles, sharpen your board vision with the coordinate trainer, or play rated correspondence chess against real opponents.
