Ever Wanted to Play Chess Against a Computer Online?
Here is a chance to play a game against a basic chess computer. This computer chess program was written to run in flash, but it still gives a decent game. It is a free game, uses a 3d chess board and needs no download. Could it be the best free online chess program out there?
If you want a tougher game then try some of the other computer chess engine download links on this site. Almost any UCI chess engine from Jim Abletts page will give an incredibly strong game, or you could download the Crafty chess computer which is also available with its own graphical user interface

How do you castle? Game wouldn’t let me O-O
Dude, thanks so much for having this website up. i’m just beginning to learn chess n this is the only website that my workplace has given access to. get bored here n this makes my day a bit interesting..so Thanks
How do you castle
Good start for me I can cheat and learn
i like this gameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Move the king first to where you want it to go. It will only let you castle if you haven’t already moved the king and you are not in check, or moving into check.
The opposing pawns are making illegal capture moves. I will move my piece beside the opposing pawn. Then it will move diagonally behind my piece and capture it. My pawns cannot perform the same capture against the opposition….
Sorry, but the capture you refer to is not illegal. It is called “en passant” (French for “in passing”). It can only be carried out immediately after the player moves a pawn two squares from its initial position.
I will add a section to the site about rules of chess and legal moves for pieces etc. at some point in the future.
In the meantime here is a wiki link with more details – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/En_passant
Yes, great site for practice and learning patterns. Last week I undid a move and redoing it got a different response. Good design and wonderful resource.
its really awesome
i love to play chess…
Goooooood. i again started playing after a long gap. I used to play it twenty years back. The site is so helpful. After initial practice of beginners and casual, now i am playing advanced. two out of four times i bet the computer. thank you…………….
how come we cant do en pas back to the computer?
this helps me learn how to play chess bcoz i suck at chess
The rules surrounding castling are as follows. (1) Neither the rook with which you want to castle or the king can have moved from their original starting positions. (2) The king cannot move through a square that will be putting itself into check during the move. (3) In this particular chess programme you click on the king 1st, move it 2 squares either to the right or left, and the rook will automatically swap positions with it. (As you will no doubt have noticed the squares light up in this programme to let you know where you are able to move any piece you click on.) To be perfectly honest with you, I don’t know how other chess programmes on the net let you attain this move, but I’m sure it can’t be all that different to the above. I hope I have been of some help, Julie Gill.
nice game
You can if the computer moves a pawn two squares when you have a pawn in the correct place to take it. The computer seldom makes this move though and you can only perform en passant on the move the opportunity occurs,
To Peter and David, I forgot to mention one more thing about castling, and that is that you cannot make the move if your king is already in check. Sorry about that, Julie.
you rock this is really awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY FIRST TIME
I Like this game………………
I like this chess game. I have very strong in the move even up to the point of winning all the stages.
I really like the Daily Chess Puzzle. It’s an excellent learning tool.
On another note, the new link to Jim Abletts’ site is broken. Does anyone know what happened?
Simply suberb to play Chess in this website. A good and true result for age group of people. Thanks for this.
this is the best game that i play every day
I can verify that all the moves the computer does is valid very nice system you made here. Almost seems like the computer even learns from you which is absurd to think i know. You can do the En passant move to the computer its just not dumb enough to set that move up against its self often, however it does make a blunder or two at times.
This is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks guys this is very helpful im not that good and this game helps me get better
Yesssss !!! I stalemated the computer in the Advanced mode.
i love your website it is aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwsssssssssssssssssssssooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Very good it just hits the mark though the color u should choose is black.
Finally, I’ve found something to do at 3 o’clock in the morning

Jim’s site has moved a few times recently. Think he is having problems with hosts and bandwidth. Will update the link soon.
Google “Arena Chess” and download an engine for it or use the ones it comes with. The engines it has can beat the World Grandmaster (human). If you want an easy chess game to set up and download then Google “Crafty chess”. Links were available on this site, but I have been away for a while and I forget where.
LOL! Go to sleep. :)
