WHAT YOU GET

Three things no other Xiangqi app does together.

An opponent that adapts to you

PRO

AI Player matches its strength to your rating instead of a fixed level you pick yourself. It is an opponent, not an assistant — same rules, same board, just tuned to push you.

160 challenges in five chapters

Cannon basics through palace mates, each chapter ending in a boss game from a real position. Two chapters are free.

Play a friend with a code

Send six characters, they join, the room locks. Nobody else can wander in. Friends who arrive late can watch instead — on a fifteen-second delay, so nobody can call moves from the sidelines.

Start in about a minute.

1

One-tap sign-in

Apple on iPhone, Google on Android. No email, no password, no form — and Apple’s private relay address works fine.

2

Pick your opponent

Ten engine levels, honestly labelled — level 1 gives pieces away on purpose, level 10 is club strength. Or let AI Player adapt to you.

3

Play, then read why

After the game, three moments that decided it, in words. One of them is always something you did well.

PRICING

The whole game is free. Pro buys the teacher.

Full-strength play, all ten levels, and the classic board cost nothing and always will. Nothing you can buy makes you a stronger player.

Questions people actually ask.

No. Every rule, every engine level and the whole classic board are free. What Pro buys is more challenge — the AI Player opponent, full post-game review and the later chapters. Nothing you can pay for makes you a stronger player, and rated games all run on the same engine so every rating means the same thing.

Learn the oldest game on the board you already carry.

Free forever, in English and Tiếng Việt. One tap to sign in, nothing else asked.
