Chess Universe: Getting Started

Play against the computer with different difficulties every day. The more you win, the harder it gets. There are two main modes: Play vs. Computer and Practice Match.

If you tap on the modes (VERY EASY, EASY, MEDIUM, HARD) and play the challenge and win, that will earn you keys, which will open various rewards. In this mode, you will be starting from a certain position and with instructions on what you should do to win the game. For example: “Win in 50 moves”.If you click the info icon near the mode (VERY EASY, EASY, MEDIUM, HARD), you can adjust the level of the computer opponent by watching a rewarded video. This is great for players because after watching a short video, they get to adjust the level of the opponent they want to play with. The adjustment can be playing with an easier or harder opponent.

Practice match mode is actually very customizable: 

• You can set the difficulty
• Set the color with which you want to play
• Set time per game 
• Set helpful hints, evaluation of moves, and shield against bad moves. 

ELO ratings set up the nine difficulty levels ranging from 400 ELO points to 2400 ELO points. 400 is total beginner strength, 2400 is solid chess player strength, almost grandmaster who usually has 2500 ELO and above.
