Chess.com - Play and Learn

Online chess, computer opponents, puzzles and lessons with free play and paid training tiers.

Our take

Consider it for combining games with structured practice

Rated play, thematic puzzles and game review offer several ways to revisit mistakes.

Keep in mind: A large lesson and puzzle catalog does not mean every training feature is unlimited on a free account.

What you can do

  • Play live or correspondence chess.
  • Practice rated and themed puzzles.
  • Study lessons and review completed games.
  • Play computer opponents and customize the board.

Good for

  • Chess players who want opponents and practice tools together.

Consider alternatives for

  • Anyone expecting guaranteed rating improvement or all premium training free.

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 17.0.
  • Online matchmaking requires a connection; offline computer play is a separate mode.
  • Feature limits and analysis access differ by membership.

Privacy & permissions

Online accounts associate games, ratings and community interactions with a profile. Treat profile information and social interactions as shared service activity.
