Solve the daily puzzle, start the lesson library with How Chess Works, and accept any friend's invite. The coach and rival voices are free for everyone. SIX RIVALS WITH REAL PERSONALITIES From Pip, a beginner learning one move at a time, to Nova, an expert who loves to attack, each rival plays at their own level and talks like themselves.
