The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A relaxed, low-stakes chess experience that removes complexity and intimidation by limiting choices to a few curated moves.

What players say
Players are split on Lazy Chess. Supporters call it a fun and cheap way to learn chess by forcing the best two moves each turn, while detractors point to bugs, poor UI, and a lack of explanations for why those moves are suggested.
