Big Boards, Clear Pieces
Every board here is drawn large, with pieces you can tell apart by shape as well as color. Tap a piece and the squares it can move to light up, so you never have to guess what is allowed.
Dice You Can Trust
The dice are rolled fairly for you and for the computer alike. Every game has a deal number: play the same number again and you get the same rolls, so you can see for yourself that nothing is rigged.
Play at Your Own Pace
There is no clock. Pick Easy, Normal or Hard, ask for a hint when you want one, and tap Why? to see the reason behind a computer move. Your game is saved on your own device, so you can come back to it later.
