Playing Chess has many benefits. It is proven to make you smarter. A study of 4,000 Venezuelan students (male & female) showed significant rises in IQ scores after 4 months of Chess instruction. Another study by Dr. Robert Freidland was recently featured in The New England Journal of Medicine. It found that people over the age of 75 who regularly engage in activities like chess are less likely to develop Dementia and Alziemers than their non-board-game-playing peers. Just like an un-exercised muscle loses strength unused brain tissue leads to a loss of brain power. Chess is particularly good as it deeply engages both sides of the brain for both novice and expert players as shown in this German study. Still not convinced? Chess has also been shown to improve your creativity, memory, problem-solving ability, concentration and planning/foresight skills. Have you played a game today?

Play Chess online, free App
Start playing chess now against the computer at various levels, from easy level one all the way up to master level. To start the game, simply click on the Start button and start playing the chess computer. When you set up your new game, you can also configure the time control, which means thinking time will also be limited.
Game status:
During the ongoing game, the status 'It's your move' will usually appear because the computer calculates its moves very quickly, and performs these moves on the chessboard immediately after your move. If the computer program beats you, or you put the computer program into checkmate with the white pieces, then you will see the message 'Checkmate. White has won' and can then request a return match, or play another chess player (New Player).
