How it feels
A soothing yet mentally demanding experience where you rely on memory and deduction to solve chess puzzles on a blank board.

What players say
Players split on this one. Many enjoy the memory exercise of playing chess without seeing the board and find the music relaxing. But just as many complain that puzzles have impossible starting positions or only accept one forced solution, with bugs reported as late as level 149.
