Unfortunately, there is no game you can join at the moment. But you can create one or maybe train against a bot. You could also play some puzzles instead.

Puzzle Training

Puzzles are a great way to improve. They can help you develop your tactical vision, pattern recognition, and calculation skills.

How to Play

We're planning to create some nice help pages about the rules (in some distant future). In the meantime, you can learn by following this YouTube tutorial or check the Wikipedia page.

Tip

If you're still struggling to play with the chinese characters, you can switch to the romanized (i.e. westernized) piece style with the second button on the settings widget.

The settings widget is always accessible on the right side of the screen.

Tip

We noticed some users seem to be playing against themselves with 2 accounts.

If you want to play with a friend who is sitting next to you or if you just want to test positions, you can use our Simple Board tool.

And if you think some features are missing, don't hesitate to reach out on Discord.
