Go on, then.
This is the real board. Beat the bot — it is not trying very hard — then take it somewhere it plays for points, against a person.
Your turn. Pick a column.
Nothing here is scored, and nothing leaves your browser. In the app every rule runs on our servers.
One table. Six games.
Every one plays live against real people over a room code, or against a bot at three difficulties while you wait for someone.
The dice are not on your phone.
Every rule runs on our servers — the shuffles, the die, whether a move is legal, the chess clock and the score. Your phone sends what you meant to do and draws the answer it gets back.
- Nobody's client can cheat. The app cannot declare a winner, award itself points or write the board. It never had a copy of the scoring table to disagree with.
- Hidden hands are actually hidden. In Last Card and Domino, what leaves our server for your opponent is a count, not your cards. It is not hidden in the interface — it is not sent.
- One shuffle, one deal. Randomness is drawn from a cryptographic source inside the same lock that writes the move, so a retry cannot quietly produce a second, better roll.
It remembers the game you just played.
Two things that sound obvious and were missing until recently — both worth checking on the day you install.
- Play again actually plays again. One tap opens a new room with the same people and the same settings, and the other player gets an invitation on the screen they are already looking at. Both taps land in one room, because a game ends for both of you in the same instant.
- My Games. Every finished match, newest first: who you played, how it went, what it was worth and which way your rating moved. It reads from the results, so old rooms being cleaned up cannot empty it.
Bring your own opponent.
Or do not — there is always something to play against.
- Friends, and a room code. Search a username, send a request, and share a six-character code to put someone straight into your game.
- Chat that is filtered before it is sent. Bad language is caught before the message is stored or delivered, in English and Arabic — not censored afterwards, once everyone has already read it.
- One phone, two people. Chess, XO, Four in a Row and Ludo can be played by passing the phone around. The two card games cannot, because everyone would see everyone's hand.
- A bot that is genuinely harder on Hard. We measured it: over twelve chess games with alternating colours, Hard won six and Medium won none.
Built in Arabic, not translated into it.
The interface flips. The board does not — and that is a correctness decision, not a stylistic one.
- Right-to-left everywhere, including the screens people usually forget: the lobby, the results, the notification inbox.
- The boards never mirror. Mirrored, chess file a lands on the right and two players read one set of coordinates two different ways. A board is a physical object, so it stays put while everything around it flips.
- Arabic typography that holds together. Letter spacing is zero in Arabic, because Arabic is cursive and spacing cuts the joins between letters. Numbers are grouped and written the same way in both languages.
Free. No ads. Nothing to buy.
There are no coins, no gems, no shop, no subscription, no battle pass and no loot boxes. The only thing you can collect is points, and they are not for sale. This is not a launch promotion — nothing in the app is built to sell you anything.
Before you download
Is it really free?
Yes, and it is not free-to-play either. There are no in-app purchases, no subscription, no ads and no loot boxes. Nothing in the app is designed to sell you anything.
Do I need an account?
No. You can start as a guest and play immediately. A guest account lasts 30 days of inactivity — playing keeps it alive — and you can convert it to a permanent one with Google, Apple or an email address at any time. It stays the same account: your points, level, friends and achievements come with you.
Can I play with someone in another country?
Yes. Share your room code and they join it, wherever they are. A move usually appears on the other screen in well under a second.
Is it suitable for children?
The games are, and chat is filtered before a message is delivered rather than after. You can also block anyone, which stops their messages and keeps you out of random games together. Our terms set a minimum age of 13.
What happens to my data?
Accounts, games and chat live on our own servers in the EU, not on a third party's analytics platform. The privacy policy is generated from the same document our code is written against, so it describes what actually happens — including what is kept, for how long, and what deleting your account really removes.
Pull up a chair.
Free to download, free to play, and free of anyone trying to sell you a dice skin.
